Veṇuhaya

Veṇuhaya

Veṇuhaya is a king of the line of Yadu, a son of Sahasrāda and a brother of Haihaya, from whom the Haihayas descend.

The Sūta tells the munis that Yadu had five sons, like sons of the devas: Sahasrāda, Payoda, Kroshṭu, Nīla and Añjika. Sahasrāda had three very righteous sons: Haihaya, Haya and King Veṇuhaya. Haihaya’s son was Dharmanetra; his son was Kārta, and Kārta’s son was Sāhañja.
