This article records a figure from the medieval Kulasekhara (second Chera) dynasty of Mahodayapuram, Kerala, and its successor swaroopams. The dynasty's genealogy is reconstructed chiefly from temple and copper-plate inscriptions rather than a continuous chronicle, and its later kings and the founders of the post-fragmentation successor states are less firmly attested than its earlier phase, as noted in the individual entries.
