Dantidurga, also known as Dantivarman or Dantidurga II was the founder of the Rashtrakuta Empire of Manyakheta. He was succeeded by his uncle Krishna I who extended his kingdom to all of Karnataka.
Just after occupying Vatapi, he also carried out several conquests but became unpopular very soon and was deposed by his uncle Krishna I. Dantidurga made Gulbarga his capital and defeated the Karnatbala of the Badami Chalukya (Kirtivarman II). He also defeated the kings of Lata (Gujarat), Malwa, Kalinga, Nagas and assumed the title of Rajadhiraja.
