Osman Sagar is a reservoir in the Indian city of Hyderabad. 
It was created by damming the Musi River in 1920, to provide an additional source of drinking water for Hyderabad and to protect the city after the Great Musi Flood of 1908.
Constructed during the reign of the last Nizam of Hyderabad State, Osman Ali Khan, it is a popular tourist destination, especially in the monsoon season when the reservoir is full.
Its parks, resorts, and amusement park are a major attraction.
This lake had served drinking water to Hyderabad city but, due to increase in population, is not sufficient to meet the city's water supply demand. (ANI)
