IAST|Hāla (r. 20-24 CE) was a Satavahana kingMahajan V.D. (1960, reprint 2007) "Ancient India", S.Chand, New Delhi, ISBN 81-219-0887-6,pp.394-95] . The Matsya Purana mentions him as the 17th ruler of the Satavahana dynasty [Raychaudhuri, H.P. (1972), "Political History of Ancient India", University of Calcutta, Calcutta, p.361] .

The Lilavati describes his marriage with a Ceylonese Princess.Vijayananda, the commander-in-Chief of Hala's army led a successful campaign in Ceylon. On his way back, he stayed back at "Sapta Godavari Bhimam". Here, he came to know about Lilavati, the beautiful daughter of the king of Ceylon. He narrated her story to IAST|Hāla. King IAST|Hāla secured Lilavati and married herMahajan V.D. (1960, reprint 2007) "Ancient India", S.Chand, New Delhi, ISBN 81-219-0887-6,pp.394-95] .

IAST|Hāla is famous for compiling an anthology of Maharashtri Prakrit poems known as the Gaha Sattasai (Sanskrit:IAST|Gāthā Saptaśatī), although from linguistic evidence it seems that the work now extant must have been re-edited in the succeeding century or two.
