The bravery, war skills and princely attitude of Porus greatly impressed Alexander, who allowed him to rule Hydaspes in Alexander's name. Wounded in his shoulder, standing at over 2.1 m (7 feet) tall, he was asked by Alexander how he wished to be treated. "Treat me, O Alexander, like a king" Porus responded. Alexander would indeed treat him like a king, allowing him to retain his kingship.

Alexander returned because of Porus's shocking resistance in his way. Alexander's army was greatly afraid of elephant-army of indigenous king and they refused Alexander in his campaign according to Hollywood movie "Alexander-The great". They had to fight with Nanda dynasty which was huge and most powerful in south asia.
