'''Ketakadas Kshemananda''' or '''Kshemananda Das''' was a 17th or 18th-century [[Bengalis|Bengali]] [[poet]] who wrote ''Manasar Bhasan'', a version of [[Manasamangal Kāvya|Manasa Mangal Kavya]].<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|title=Manasar Bhasan|url=http://famineanddearth.exeter.ac.uk/displayhtml.html?id=fp_00555_bn_manasarbhasan|access-date=September 1, 2020|website=Famine and Dearth in India and Britain, 1550-1800}}</ref>

''Manasar Bhasan'' was part of a Bengali poetic and performance tradition, [[Mangal-Kāvya|Mangal Kavya]], that was popular in the 13th to 18th centuries, involving sung poetry and religious worship. It tells the story of the snake [[Devi|goddess]] [[Manasa]], but notably also depicts everyday village life.<ref name=":0" /> The text was used as the basis for ''Chand Manasar Kissa'', a play produced by the Sansriti theater company in 2018 and 2019.<ref>{{Cite web|title=A well-presented political interpretation of an age-old tale - The Times Of India - Kolkata, 5/24/2019|url=https://epaper.timesgroup.com/olive/ODN/TimesOfIndia/shared/ShowArticle.aspx?doc=TOIKM/2019/05/24&entity=Ar03501&sk=96847B7B&mode=text|access-date=2020-09-01|website=epaper.timesgroup.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|date=2018-02-08|title=Chand Manasar Kissa – When Saga becomes Gag {{!}} Kaahon|url=https://www.kaahon.com/theatre/chand-manasar-kissa-when-saga-becomes-gag-2/|access-date=2020-09-01|website=www.kaahon.com|language=en-US}}</ref>

When ''Manasar Bhasan'' was published in the 1880s, the title page created the impression that the work was created by two people, "Ketakadas" and "Kshemananda."<ref>{{Cite journal|date=1893|title=Proceedings for December 1892|journal=The Proceedings of the Asiatic Society of Bengal|pages=192|via=Hathi Trust}}</ref> This was later discovered to be incorrect.<ref name=":0" />{{authority control}}
