Dunduka was an immoral and cruel person, who was the ruler of a small and reduced territory. He did not take any interest in his royal duties and neglected his queen Padma.[2] He indulged in debauchery and was pleasure-loving. He is described as "immoral" in the Gaudavaho as well.[3][2] He even made several futile attempts to kill his own son, Bhoja, who was born to Padma.[2] Later, Dunduka was killed by his son Bhoja (not to be confused with Mihira Bhoja), for the throne.[1][2][4]
He is considered as an unsuccessful ruler.[1] Āma, his father, he himself, and his son Bhoja are considered as insignificant rulers, who achieved nothing important and reigned for a brief period of 15-20 years.[5] There is no information about Bhoja's successors.[1]
