Meet a thrilling trio of formidable mythological characters!
Banasura, the fierce one with a thousand arms, each carrying a different weapon. He terrorized humans and gods alike, and even waged a battle against Lord Krishna.
Mahishasura, the much-feared asura who was more powerful than the bravest warrior on earth. This buffalo demon wreaked such havoc that it took Goddess Durga, born of the combined forces of all the gods, to defeat him.
Mahabali, the asura who was loved by all in his kingdom and beyond. A generous king, he also bravely offered his head to Vishnu as the greatest sign of devotion.
