'''Simhavishnu''' ([[IAST]]: Siṃhaviṣṇu) also known as '''Avanisimha''' son of [[Simhavarman III]] and one of the [[Pallava]] kings of [[India]], was responsible for the revival of the Pallavan dynasty. He was the first Pallava monarch whose domain extended beyond [[Kanchipuram]] (Kanchi) in the South. He was portrayed as a great conqueror in ''[[Mattavilasa Prahasana]]'' (drunken revelry), a drama written by his son [[Mahendravarman I]].
