==Conception and design== 1988 Capcom considered the idea of a sequel to their Street Fighter video game, and sketched out a basic concept and roster for the game, amongst them an Indian character. Called "Great Tiger", the character appeared as a long-faced man with a turban who was able to double jump and breathe fire. While this iteration of the game was stopped in favor of working on Final Fight, when Capcom resumed work on Street Fighter II, character designer Akira "Akiman" Yasuda revisited the concept when designing the character roster. Akiman started with two concepts for the character, India and yoga, and wanted to emphasize a stereotype to further make the character memorable. Several concepts were considered, including an elephant headed design modeled after the Hindu God Ganesh. However, sprite artist Takashi Hayashi used a sketch that had been done by fellow Capcom designer Yoshiaki Ohji.
