Underi (también llamada Jaidurg) es una isla fortificada de la India[1] cerca de la desembocadura del puerto de Mumbai al sur del Faro de Prong. Es un fuerte compañero de Khanderi y actualmente se encuentra en el distrito de Raigad, estado de Maharashtra. Estas islas de Khanderi y Underi sirvieron como uno de los puntos de referencia para los buques que entraban al puerto de Mumbai. [2] Underi es más pequeña que Khanderi y casi circular.

Fue construida por Kahim de los Siddis[3] en 1680 de la era cristiana.[4]
