Hinduism - Who Is Ugrasena In Hindu Mythology?

 

In Hindu mythology, Ugrasena is the ruler of Mathura and the divinity Krishna's grandfather.

Ugrasena is replaced by the villainous Kamsa, who is mistakenly thought to be Ugrasena's son but is not.

According to tradition, Kamsa is the offspring of a demon who has acquired Ugrasena's shape and had sexual relations with Ugrasena's wife while in this incarnation.
