Prithviswara II was a Telugu king of Velanati Chodas who ruled from 1186 A.D. to 1207 A.D.
He was the last important ruler of the kingdom and he stayed at Pithapuram. He made several vain attempts to win the lost prestige. When Kakatiyas were fighting Yadavas, he seized the opportunity and reoccupied Verlanadu including places like Chandolu and Vengi. However he lost to Kakatiyas and Nellore Chodas starting from 1201 A.D. to 1207 A.D.
