Question:medium

In which Mahakavya is the description of the Himalayas found at the very beginning (Mangalacharana)?

Show Hint

Remember the opening phrase: "Astyuttarasyam dishi..." is the signature of Kumarasambhava. Kalidasa's reverence for nature, especially mountains, is a recurring motif in his works (e.g., 'Meghaduta'), but this specific grand opening for the Himalayas belongs to 'Kumarasambhava'.
