Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa

चतस्रो वृत्तयो ह्येता यासु नाट्यं प्रतिष्ठितम् ।
आवन्ती दाक्षिणात्या च तथा चैवोढ्रमागधी
catasro vṛttayo hyetā yāsu nāṭyaṃ pratiṣṭhitam |
āvantī dākṣiṇātyā ca tathā caivoḍhramāgadhī

The line

These four are the styles in which drama is established. The Āvantī (आवन्ती), the southern, and the Oḍhra (ओढ्र) and the Māgadhī (मागधी).

नेपालीमा

यी चार शैली हुन् जसमा नाटक अडिन्छ। आवन्ती, दक्षिणी, ओढ्र र मागधी हुन्।

Where it sits

The regional pravṛtti (प्रवृत्ति) list begins. 6.26 finishes it. The file writes the eastern pair as one word, Oḍhramāgadhī (ओढ्रमागधी).
