Rukmi never returned to his capital Kundinapuri in Vidarbha. Instead, he created another capital called Bhojakata to the west of Kundina and started ruling his kingdom from there. Rukmi’s daughter, Rukmavati, married Krishna’s son Pradyumna. Rukmavati and Pradyumna had a son, Aniruddha.
Rukmi was not accepted by Arjuna or Duryodhana as an ally in the Kurukshetra War because of his boastfulness. Thus, Rukmi's Vidarbha army stayed away from the Kurukshetra War, becoming a neutral army in the encounter between the Kauravas and the Pandavas.
The king was killed by Balarama because he cheated the deity in a game of dice, and insulted his Yadava heritage. Provided by Wikipedia
