Brother of Cūlanī-Brahmadatta.
He was born while his mother, Talatā, was
living with the brahmin Chambhī, after having
killed Mahācūlanī. On discovering his
real parentage, he killed Chambhī, and, having taken the throne, sent for his
brother, Cūlanī, who was then in exile, and crowned him king (J.vi.469, 473).
It is said (J.vi.474) that, later, Cūlanī was displeased because Tikhinamantī
ceased to attend at the palace.
