Aniruddha was the son of Pradyumna and Sundari who were married in a public ceremony. Aniruddha was very handsome and famous for his charm. Banasur's daughter Usha saw Aniruddha in her dreams and became fascinated by his looks. She described Aniruddha to her friend Chitralekha, who was an expert artist and drew a sketch of him. When Usha confirmed it was the man from her dreams, Chitralekha flew to where Aniruddha was sleeping and brought him to Usha's palace while he was still asleep.

Other names: Aniruddh, Jhashanka
Pradyumna, in the Swayamvar (choice of her husband made by a princess in a
public ceremony) of Sundari (sister of Rukmani), wore the garland by her hands
and got married to her ceremoniously. With the marriage of Pradyumna and
Sundari, Aniruddha was born.
Aniruddha was very handsome. He had become famous everywhere because of
his charm. Once, Banasur’s daughter Usha saw Aniruddha in her dreams. She
was fascinated by his looks. Day and night, she started obsessing about him. Usha
had a friend named Chitralekha, who was an expert in drawing. On describing a
person’s looks, she could make a sketch of him. Usha described to Chitralekha,
the person she saw in her dreams. Chitralekha made a sketch that looked exactly
like Aniruddha. Usha was overjoyed seeing this and screamed, “Yes, he is the
one.” Chitralekha flew like a bird and went to the palace of Aniruddha when he
was sleeping. She picked him up right from there and brought him in his sleep to
Usha’s palace.
