Official Solution & Explanation:
Correct Answer: Option A(कंबन)
12वीं शताब्दी के महान तमिल कवि कंबन (Kamban) ने चोल शासक कुलोत्तुंग तृतीय के काल में तमिल भाषा में 'रामावतारम्' (जिसे सामान्यतः 'कंब रामायण' कहा जाता है) की रचना की। इसे तमिल साहित्य का अमर महाकाव्य माना जाता है। नन्नय और टिक्कण तेलुगु महाभारत के रचयिता हैं।
The 12th-century Tamil poet Kamban authored 'Ramavataram' (popularly known as Kamba Ramayanam) during the reign of Chola king Kulottunga III. It is celebrated as one of the greatest masterpieces of Tamil literature. Nannaya and Tikkana were Telugu poets who translated the Mahabharata.
