Bahuka (Sanskrit: बाहुक, romanizedBāhuka), also called Subahu, is a king of the Suryavamsha (solar dynasty) featured in Hindu literature.[1]

Legend

According to the Puranas, Bahuka was the son of Vrika. He was ousted from his throne and driven out of his country by the Haihayas and the Talajanghas.[2] He took refuge in the hermitage of the sage Aurva. His son, Sagara, was born in this hermitage.[3]
