A Correct answer
Explanation

Kulotunga I (1070-1120 CE) fought against Vikramaditya VI of the Western Chalukya dynasty. The Chola-Chalukya conflict was a major power struggle in medieval South India. Vikramaditya VI, a powerful Chalukya ruler, engaged in prolonged warfare with Kulotunga I over territorial claims in the Vengi region (modern Andhra Pradesh). The other options represent different rulers and periods - Someshwar II was Vikramaditya's brother and predecessor, Surya Varman I was Khmer, and Raj Varman II is not a historically significant figure in this context.
