Kashiram Das Kashiram das (কাশীরাম দাস, born 16th century) is an important poet in medieval Bengali literature. His Bengali re-telling of the "Mahabharata", known as "Kashidasi Mahabharat", is a popular and influential version of the "Mahabharata" legend in Bengal. Although the entire work is intra-textually ascribed to him, most scholars agree that he composed only the first four of the eighteen books ("parvas"). As with the "Ramayana" of Krittibas Ojha, Kashiram freely removed elements and added other legends to the story. "Das" is not a last name, but a title meaning "servant" in the Vaishnava tradition; the name is also written as Kashiramdas.
