Join Ramjee Chandran as we delve into the formative years of the Hoysala dynasty, spanning from 1000 AD to 1047 AD. Explore the mysterious figure of Sala, the dynasty's founder, and his connection to the Malnad region. Uncover the early struggles and alliances of the Hoysalas, as they navigated the complex political landscape of the Deccan.

Witness the rise of Nripa Kama II and his role in consolidating Hoysala power. Discover how the Hoysalas transformed from feared forest brigands to powerful and sophisticated rulers in less than half a century, laying the foundation for a golden age under Vinayaditya.
