A couple of comments:	
Style: The places where pure samskRta phrases got juxtaposed with pure 
telugu phrases leave a bad taste in the mouth.	
Usage: 'sasya Syaamala (sic) cEsina' ??	
History: If I remember correctly, pulakESi was around the time of ...some 
BC period. Aren't there any more telugu kings until rAjarAja (11th AD)?
Also, was yajnaSrI SAtakarNi real? I thought he was a product of aDavi 
bApirAju's imagination - is he the same as gautamI putra SAtakarNi?

Don't get me wrong, the poem reads very well, has a nice gait to it and 
all, but still... just wondering aloud.	

Regards
Nasy
