Prahlada (Sanskrit: प्रह्लाद, romanized: Prahlāda), in Hinduism, was a prince deeply devoted to Vishnu. His father, Hiranyakashipu, was a powerful demon who wanted his son to worship him instead of Vishnu. But Prahlada refused and continued to worship Vishnu.
Due to this, Hiranyakashipu tried to kill Prahlada many times, but Vishnu always protected him. Finally, Vishnu appeared in his Narasimha avatar, a half-man, half-lion form, and killed Hiranyakashipu.
