The version used here is taken from the Bhagawat Purana.

This village bumpkin was no fool, even the fiery goddess Kali had given in to his wiles. Wheeding his way into the mighty Vijayanagara court, it was but a short step into the heart of King Krishnadeva Raya, who welcomed a laugh or two to lighten his busy day.
