The ṛtٲٲ첹 is considered as most popular work in Sanskrit prosody, because of its rich and number of commentaries. Kedārabhaṭṭa (C. 950-1050 C.E.) was a celebrated author in Sanskrit prosody.

Hemacandra gives these alternative names for the metres by other authorities (like Bharata), even though the number of ṇa or letters do not differ.
