2 – narakAntaka – narakAsura aka bhaumAsura was slayed by SrI kRshNa. Please refer to SrImad bhAgavataM, Book 10, Chapter 59. Story of narakAsura.

Comments -
In the book ‘Compositions of Tyagaraja’ by Sri TK Govinda Rao, this kRti is listed as ‘doubtful’, which means that it is doubtful whether this kRti was indeed composed by SrI tyAgarAja.
