According to tradition, the 91 Kalmi Bakhar was written by Shivaji's courtier Dattaji Trimal Wakenavis (or Waknis), who was a member of his Ashta Pradhan council of ministers, and accompanied him to the Mughal court in Agra. Internal evidence suggests that the original text was written before 1713, probably as early as before 1685.
