Scion-tier son of Ghaṭotkaca by Mauravī — the only full-blooded continuation of the Bhīma-Hiḍimbā-Ghaṭotkaca rākṣasa-Pāṇḍava-allied line attested in the BORI Mahābhārata. Killed by Aśvatthāmā on day 14 of Kurukshetra in the same Droṇa Parva 152-181 sequence that contains his father Ghaṭotkaca's death by Karṇa's Vāsava-Śakti — the father-and-son same-day deaths terminate the rākṣasa-allied branch of the dynasty.
