The grandson of Krishna, husband of Usha.
Accounts of this vary across texts and traditions. This entry primarily follows Puranic tradition, with other tellings (Mahabharata) noted where relevant.
Aniruddha is the son of Pradyumna and the grandson of Krishna. He is the husband of Usha.
Usha, the daughter of the Asura king Banasura, fell in love with Aniruddha in a dream. Her friend Chitralekha brought him to her. Banasura imprisoned Aniruddha, which led to a war between Banasura and Krishna. Shiva, who protected Banasura, arranged the peace.
