Rājādhidevī · rājā-adhi-devī

Rājādhidevī was one of the five daughters of Śūra of the Yadu line. Her brothers were Vasudeva Ānakadundubhi and his nine brothers, and her sisters were Pṛthukīrti, Pṛthā, Śrutadevā and Śrutaśravā. The Brahma Purāṇa calls all five sisters vīra-patnīs, wives of heroes.

Her family

In the account of the Yadu line, Devamīḍha begot Śūra on Asiknī. On Bhojyā, Śūra begot ten sons, heroes, the first of them Vasudeva, called Ānakadundubhi because the drums of svarga sounded at his birth. After him came Devabhāga, Devaśravas, Anādhṛshṭi, Kanavaka, Vatsavān, Gṛñjama, Śyāma, Śamīka and Gaṇḍūsha. Śūra also had five daughters, wives of heroes: Pṛthukīrti, Pṛthā, Śrutadevā, Śrutaśravā and Rājādhidevī.
