Another work of Simhabhūpāla is Kuvalayāvali or Ratna pāñcālikā, published in the Trivandrum Sanskrit Series by Dr. L. A. Ravi Varma as No. 146 in 1941. This is a small drama in four Acts. In the Prologue the author is mentioned as Sri S'ingabhūpāla,' otherwise known as Khadganārāyaṇa? who lived at the capital city named Rajasaila. His mother was Annamātā.' It is also stated there that one Vis'ves'vara had spoken very highly of his poetry. The Vis' ves' vara mentioned in the Prologue must be the author of Camatkāracandrikā; in the colophon of this work there is the mention of Simhabhūpāla.
There is a Telugu work called Velugotivārivaṁsāvali. In the Introduction to that work, Dr. Venkata Ramanayya deals with Simhabhūpāla on pages 13 ff.
