The contemporary documents, including the inscriptions issued by the earliest rulers of Vijayanagara, do not mention this account. The historical authenticity of this narrative is a matter of debate. After gaining power in the region, they approached Vidyaranya, who converted them back to the Hindu faith. They were sent back to Kampili as the Delhi Sultan's vassals. After Kampili fell to the Muslim invasion, they were taken to Delhi and converted to Islam. According to one narrative, the empire's founders Harihara Raya I and Bukka Raya I were two brothers in the service of the Kampili chief. Vidyaranya served as a prime minister in the Vijayanagara Empire and played an important role in the establishment of the empire. Vidyaranya was the spiritual head of the Sringeri Sharada Peetham (Sringeri matha) during 1377-1386 CE. Yet another theory states that Bharati Tirtha and Vidyaranya were the same person, although the Sringeri records clearly identify them as two different persons. This account also claims that Vidyaranya wrote some Veda bhashyas, and his disciples Sayana and Madhava completed these works. He was the elder brother of Bharati Tirtha, who preceded him as the acharya of Sringeri. 1296 CE in Ekasila Nagara (present-day Warangal). According to this account, Vidyaranya was born in c. However, according to the records of the Sringeri Sharada Peetham, Vidyaranya was a different person, and Sayana and Madhava were actually his disciples.
This suggests that he was born to Māyaṇācārya and Śrīmatīdevī in Pampakṣetra (modern-day Hampi). One theory identifies Vidyaranya as Madhava, the brother of Sayana.
