Narendrasena was a powerful Vakataka king. He was the son of Pravarsena II, and emerged the victor in a succession struggle following his father's death.[1] He reigned c. 440 – 460 and was succeeded by his son Prithvishena II.[2]
Early life
From the Balghat inscription of inscription of Pravarsena II, we come to know that Pravarsena II entered into a matrimonial alliance with the contemporary Kadambas. Narendrasena was married to Ajihata Bhattarika, the daughter of Kakusthavarma of the Kadamba dynasty.[3][4][5][6][7] [8] Pravarasena II's death was probably followed by a succession struggle from which Narendrasena, his son emerged as the victor.[1][2]
Reign
When the Guptas became involved in a war against the Huna invaders, the Vakatakas were free to expand in central India.[9] Narendrasena spread the Vakataka influence to Kosala, Mekala, and Malava. This however, ultimately brought the Vakatakas into conflict with the Nalas of Dakshina Kosala and caused a setback to the Vakataka family.[9] Narendrasena was succeeded by his son, Prithvishena II, who revived the Vakataka power for a short time.[9]
