? - c.643 A ruler of the early Western Chalukya dynasty in India. Reigned c.610-c.643. He killed his uncle Maṅgaleśa to quell the civil war, and after ascending to the throne, he expanded his kingdom by subjugating the smaller powers on all sides. He is famous for preventing the invasion of the Deccan by King Harshavardhana, who was the hegemon of northern India at the time, and it is said that an envoy was sent from Khosrow II of Persia. It was during this king's reign that Xuanzang traveled around India, writing about the fertile land of the kingdom, the thriving agriculture, and the simple yet brave nature of the people.
