Pushkara (Sanskrit: पुष्कर, romanized: Puṣkara) is the younger brother of Nala, the king of the Nishadas featured in the Mahabharata. Scheming with the asura Kali, he defeated Nala in a manipulated game of dice, robbing him of his kingdom and riches. Nala later defeats him in a rematch, and is restored as the king. Despite his actions and lust for Nala's wife, Damayanti, Pushkara is forgiven, and the brothers make their peace with each other.
