Nazir Uddin Ismail Shah who had revolted against the Delhi Sultanate stepped down on that day in favour of Bahman Shah . His revolt was successful , and he established an independent state on the Deccan within the Delhi Sultanate 's southern provinces . The Bahmani capital was Hasanabad ( Gulbarga ) between 1347 and in 1425 it was moved to Muhammadabad ( Bidar ) . The Bahmani contested the control of the Deccan with the Vijayanagara Empire to the south . The sultanate reached the peak of its power during the vizierate ( 1466 -- 1481 ) of Mahmud Gawan . The south Indian Emperor Krishnadevaraya of the Vijayanagara Empire defeated the last remnant of Bahmani Sultanate power after which the Bahmani Sultanate collapsed . After 1518 the sultanate broke up into five states : Nizamshahi of Ahmednagar , Qutb Shahi of Golconda ( Hyderabad ) , Baridshahi of Bidar , Imadshahi of Berar , Adilshahi of Bijapur . They are collectively known as the `` Deccan Sultanates '' . Society and culture ( edit ) Rulers of the dynasty believed that they descended from Bahman , the mythological figure of Greater Iranian legend and lore . The Bahamani Sultans were patrons of the Persian language , culture and literature , and some members of the dynasty became well - versed in that language and composed its literature in that language . The first sultan , Alauddin Bahman Shah is noted to have captured 1,000 singing and dancing girls from Hindu temples after he battled the northern Carnatic chieftains . The later Bahmanis also enslaved civilian women and children in wars ; many of them were converted to Islam in captivity . The craftspersons of Bidar were so famed for their inlay work on copper and silver that it came to be known as Bidri . Although the sultanate practice Shi'a Islam , the majority of the population adhered to Hinduism . The common people , who were mostly Hindus , had to adjust their religious practices to become more acceptable to their Muslim political masters .
