In Hinduism
Natyashastra (theatrics and dramaturgy)
Bhūbhujā (भूभुजा) (=Acyutabhūbhujā) is possibly identified as the author of the Tālalakṣaṇa, which is otherwise supposedly ascribed to Kohala—a celebrated authority of the ancient period along with others such as Bharata, Yāṣṭika, Śārdūla, Kāśyapa etc.—There are four manuscripts of this name attributed to Kohala. Two are named “tālalakṣaṇam”, one is named “tālalakṣaṇam—kohalīyaṭīkā” and the last one is named “bharataśāstram”. The author of this work, Tālalakṣaṇa, as mentioned in the available manuscript catalogues and the manuscripts themselves, is Kohala. [However—] In the course of the work, we find recurring references to the name Acyuta / Acyutarāya. In [manuscript] R7979, we find [several] entries in the mūla text. This clearly indicates that the work has been written by Acyuta Bhūbhujā, which is further clarified in the telugu commentary as being Acyutarāya (Acyutabhūbhujā—Acyutarāyalacātanu).
Natyashastra (नाट्यशास्त्र, nāṭyaśāstra) refers to both the ancient Indian tradition (shastra) of performing arts, (natya—theatrics, drama, dance, music), as well as the name of a Sanskrit work dealing with these subjects. It also teaches the rules for composing Dramatic plays (nataka), construction and performance of Theater, and Poetic works (kavya).
