The correct answer is option 4, Vijayanagar kings. Sayana, the famous commentator of the Vedas, flourished under the rule of the Vijayanagar kings.

Option 1, Bahmani kings, is not the correct answer. The Bahmani kingdom was a medieval Islamic state in the Deccan region of South India, and it is not associated with Sayana.

Option 2, Golkonda kings, is also not the correct answer. The Golkonda kingdom was a successor state to the Bahmani kingdom and it is also not associated with Sayana.

Option 3, Gajapati kings, is not the correct answer as well. The Gajapati kingdom was a medieval Hindu kingdom in Odisha, and it is not related to Sayana`s period.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 4, Vijayanagar kings. The Vijayanagar kingdom was a Hindu empire in South India, and it was during this time that Sayana flourished as a commentator of the Vedas.
