Chandravati (Bengali: চন্দ্রাবতী) was a medieval Bengali poet, widely considered as the first woman poet of Bengali language.Chandravati was born in the village of Pathabadi, in Mymensingh which is currently located in Dhaka division of Bangladesh. Bansidhar was a composer of Manasa's ballads known as Manasar Bhasaner Gan. According to Sambaru Chandra Mohanta, he was one of the composers of Manasamangal.

Chandravati was the first woman from the Indian subcontinent to compose the Ramayana in her own language.
When the 16th century Bengali poet Candravati rewrote the Ramayana, she presented it neither as a battle story nor as a celebration of masculine heroism. The central figure was not the warrior king. Its domain was not the public world. It was the story of a woman’s betrayal reflected in other women’s lives and thereby universalized. It turned from battles to their victims, and it looked inward into the turmoil of private lives. While she accepted the divinity of the main players, it was not the grand doings of divine personages that Candravati relates but the sufferings of mortals. Above all, she told the story from Sita’s point of view and in her voice, lamenting her undeserved suffering as common to women’s lot in in this world.
