Solution
The correct option is A Tukaram
Tukaram was a 17th-century poet-saint of the Bhakti movement in Maharashtra. His stature in Marathi literature is comparable to that of Shakespeare in English or Goethe in German. He is best known for his Abhanga devotional poetry and community-oriented worship with spiritual songs known as kirtans. There is no other Marathi writer who has so deeply and widely influenced Marathi literary culture since.
