Khilla Ghanpur is a historic place equidistant, 25 km, from Mahabubnagar and Wanaparthy towns of Telangana state, India.
Khilla Ghanpur has a fort and a lake (known as Ganapa Samudram) built during Kakatiya dynasty rule.
Malyala Gunda Dandadeeshudu married Gona Budda Reddy’s daughter.
After Gona Ganna Reddy rule, his brother-in-law Malyala Gundanna became the king of Vardhamanapuram.
Malyala Gundanna constructed several lakes with the help of his brother-in-law Gona Ganna Reddy at the time of Rudrama Devi's rule.
Buddapuram (present-day Bhoothpur) and Vardhamana Puram (Nandi Vaddeman, near Bijinapalle)[2] are the centers for Malyala Kings.
These kings helped to Kakatiyas in many wars during the period of Ganapathi Deva, Rudrama Devi and Prataparudra.
Ghanpur has a hill fort and was built by joining two mountains by Gona Ganapa Reddy and Recherla Padma Nayakulu (Singama Nayakudu I) in 13th century.
