He was a celebrated poet as well as a learned scholar in the court of Malladeva, the then king of Assam. His interpretations of two new gaṇas in Sanskrit metrics are noteworthy. He has thrown new lights on the history of Sanskrit Prosody through his work Vṛttamālā. He mentions about his authorship, his patron Malladeva at the end of the work. He praises Rādhā and Mādhava in the invocatory verse of his work, for which it can be said that he is a staunch follower of Vaiṣṇava philosophy.
