In the
Hindu epic
Ramayana, the
vanara Vali (
Sanskrit: वाली) was king of
Kishkindha, a son of
Indra and the elder brother of
Sugriva. He was killed by
Rama, an
avatar of
Vishnu.He was famous for the boon that he had received, according to which anyone who came before him lost half his/her strength to Vali, thereby making Vali invulnerable to any enemy. Once Ravana called Vali for a fight when vali was doing his regular shiva puja. He took Ravana in his tail and took around all worlds. Vali accepted the compromise offer of Ravana inspite of Ravana being the enemy of his father Indra. Hence
Rama slew him with an arrow in his back. Rama punished Vali for his evil deeds. It is said that Vali was reborn as the hunter Jara who killed Lord
Krishna by his arrow in the Dwapara Yuga.
