Nandi Kalambagam Manda Kadhai Nadu ariyum Where was the line taken from and who was the author of this poem?
Moodhumozhi Venba - Somaicher
Nandi Kalambagam is a Pallava period work in praise of Nandivarman III; a popular tradition says that the king died on hearing its verses, which were composed as a death-bringing (aram) song.
This tradition is recalled in the line Nandi kalambagaththaal maanda kadhai naadariyum (the whole land knows the story of the one who died by the Nandi Kalambagam).
The line occurs in the Muthumozhi Venba linked with the name Somesar (Somesar Muthumozhi Venba), a work that illustrates old proverbs with stories, and not in Nandi Kalambagam itself.
Deiva Ula and Thondar Atruppadai do not contain this line.
Hence, Moodhumozhi Venba - Somaicher.
