In Hindu mythology, Anrita is falsehood, son of Adharma (unrighteousness or vice), married to Nikriti (immorality). They had two sons, Bhaya (fear) and Naraka (hell), and twin daughters, Máya (deceit) and Vedanú (torture), who became their brothers' wives.


Anrita is also the name of one of the mystical weapons delivered to Ráma by Viswámitra, as mentioned in the Rámáyana.
