In Hinduism Indrani (queen of Indra) is the goddess of wrath and jealousy, and a daughter of Puloman, an Asura who was killed by Indrani's future husband, Indra. She is one of the seven Matrikas (mother goddesses). She is described as a beauty and in particular as having beautiful eyes. She is associated with lions and elephants. With Indra, she is the mother of Jayanta, Jayanti, Midhusa, Nilambara, Rbhus, Rsabha and Chitragupta. In Hindu epics, she is also described as 'The Endless Beauty'.
