Chhu (Brahmi script:

Chhu) seems to have been a late Kushan Empire ruler, who ruled from 310 to 325 CE.^[2] His coinage is very similar to that of his near-contemporary Vasudeva.^[3] His rule corresponds to the last days of the Kushan Empire, before the conquest by Kidara.^[4]

The rule of Chhu was probably centered on the Punjab and neighbouring areas.^[5]
