Life[edit]
Shrutakirti was the Princess of Sankasya and the younger daughter of King Kushadwaj. She was the incarnation of Mahalaxmi's flower. Shrutakirti also had an elder sister Mandavi.[2]
Shrutakirti was married to ayodhya's king Dasharatha's fourth and youngest son Shatrughna. They had two sons, Subahu and Shatrughati. [3]
