Sri Anantacharya is also known as the Ramanujacharya of Kanchipuram. This work of poetic art was meant for singing praises of holy Lord Sri Venkateswara, while waking Him up early in the morning, in the sacred Tirumala temple, everyday. Suprabhatham is normally composed by musicians in the Vasantha Tilaka meter. The most popular among all the Suprbhathams is the Sri Venkateswara Suprabhatam, a series of hymns written, in poetic form, by Pratvada Bhayankara Sri Anantacharya, in 1430 A.D. It is a genre that consists of hymns or verses and is used to wake up the holy Hindu Gods. The term Suprabhatham is from the Sanskrit language that literally means the ‘Auspicious Dawn’ and belongs to the Suprabhatha Kaavya genre.
