It is one of the oldest works in Malayalam and is considered a work that reflects the social history of the time it was written.
Overview.
The poem begins by praising the legend of the temple established by "Athavarma" in the village of Chokiram (present-day Shukapuram), the 'Nayakamani' of Brahmin villages, and the "Ardhanarishvara Thenkailanatha" who was enshrined there.
It is assumed that the poet who wrote the poem belongs to Chokiram village. "Manipravalakavi", the son of "Chiruthevi" mentioned in the book, is considered the counterpart of the poet himself. At the end of the book, mentioning 'Marayancherikerlamishramaravacha', P. V. Krishnan Nair says that the poet could be any of the Marayancheri (Maravancheri) Namboothiris. The beginning of the poem tells about the Mahakavya written by Achan about Unnichiruthevi.
