the largest gun is placed between two bastions in the fort. It was named so after the battle of Tallikotta, when the Vnjaynagar empire was defeated . the gun is 4.5 metres in length and the diameter is 1.5 meters. The canon weighs 55 tons .its muzzle is shaped like the open mouth of a lion holding an elephant in its jaws. It was so big that the British could not shift it to England at the end of their rule in India.
