The correct answer is option 3, Krishan-I. The Kailash temple of Siva at Ellora was built by the Rashtrakuta ruler Krishan-I. The Kailash temple is a remarkable architectural marvel, carved out of a single rock. It is dedicated to Lord Shiva and is considered one of the largest monolithic structures in the world. The temple complex includes intricate carvings, sculptures, and elaborate architecture. While options 1, 2, and 4 are other Rashtrakuta rulers, there is no historical evidence or records suggesting that they built the Kailash temple. Therefore, the correct answer is Krishan-I.
