In three or four campaigns Kṛṣṇadevarāya had compelled Pratāparudra to cede that part of his empire which lay to the south of the Godāvari. According to Nunez, Pratāparudra was compelled to give one of his daughters in marriage to Kṛṣṇadevarāya.² This marriage is also mentioned in the Rāyavāchakamu where the Oriya princess is called Jaganmohinī. The marriage is also mentioned in the *Kṛṣṇa-rāya-vijayam* and *Tamil-Navalar-Charitai*.¹ She is also called Tukkā. After her marriage she was neglected by her husband and led a life of seclusion at Kambam in the Cuddappa district.² Pratāparudra’s son, Virabhadra, remained in honourable confinement till the end of the war. He became the governor of the district of *Malega-Beṇṇur-sīme* and remitted taxes on marriages in 1516 for the merit of his father Pratāparudra and his sovereign Kṛṣṇadevarāya.³
