In the Hindu epic Ramayana, Shrutakirti'' (IAST Śrutakīrti) was a princess and daughter of King Kushadhwaja and Queen Chandrabhaga.[1] She was wife of Shatrughna, younger brother of Rama.
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]
She used to take care of her in-laws, along with her sister Mandavi when her eldest sister Sita and brother in laws Ram and Lakshman was exiled. Later Shrutakirti became queen of Madhupura (Mathura) when her husband Shatrughna captured the capital after killing Lavanasura.[4]
