SAHṚDAYALOKA
an impression of Dhananjaya / Dhanika over it. In case of Kuntakas beautiful vācyártha (vicitrā-abhidhā at pure abhidhā level) being branded as Dhvani, we have a different sense of dhvani, perhaps broader, because Anandavardhana had ruled out such cases from his dhvani; and in taking 'tātparya' as 'dhvani' the normal connotation of tatparya is also extended like the one seen in the Daśarupaka / Avaloka, when it covers the suggested sense also in its fold.

But when in the act of beautiful praise or eulogy'arthavada'- i.e. beautiful poetic exaggeration of the merits of a given thing, this
