Kamsudu (Kamsa) - 1

Do you know the story of Kamsudu(Kamsa) and how much powerful he was?
Once King Ugrasenudu was ruling Madhura. One day his wife and some other women went to river Yamuna for bathing. There Dramiludu named demon saw the wife of Ugrasenudu and liked her. He came as Ugrasenudu and along with the wife of Ugrasenudu he roamed there. Finally Ugrasenudu's found out that he is not her husband. She told in anger that "the child who will born to me because of you will be killed by person born in lineage of Hari". The son born to her because of Dramiludu was Kamsudu because of his father he got qualities of demons.
There is one more story related to birth of Kamsudu. He was Kalanemi named demon in previous birth. He had hundred heads and hundred pairs of hands at that birth. He fought with Lord Vishnu during churning of Palasagaram (milk sea). At that time he died in the hands of Vishnu. But priest of demons with name Bhargavudu made him alive.
Then Kalanemi penanced about Lord Bramha for hundred years with the wish to defeat Lord Vishnu. When Bramha appeared in front of him, pleased with his penance, he asked the boon that he should not die in the hands of immortals(gods).
But Bramha thought that giving this boon at that time may not be good. So, he told that his wish will be fulfilled in next birth.
