It has been identified to be by vAsudEvAccArya but does not contain his mudra(signature). However, it bears the the name of the then mahArAja of maisUr, ShrI kr.sNa rAjEndra.

VK,
Mandhari is the ragam - http://sangeethamshare.org/nanda/Varnam ... di-MLV.mp3

The link is down now due to the Sangeethapriya outage. It will probably be restored in the next several days.
