Vasavadatta is also a character in the Svapnavasavadatta and the Vina-Vasavadatta thumb|right|Vasavadhata - oil painting by Rajasekharan Parameswaran.

The work's style has been described as "developed, elaborate, ornate and pedantic" and has influenced later prose writers. The Kanchanadarpana of Sivarama Tripathin (18th century) and the Tattvadipini of Jagaddhara are two significant works of criticism and commentary on the Vasavadatta.
