The Aravidu Dynasty was the fourth and last Hindu dynasty which ruled Vijayanagara Empire in South India.[1] Its founder was Tirumala Deva Raya, whose brother Rama Raya had been the masterful regent of the last ruler of the previous dynasty. Rama Raya's death at the Battle of Rakasa-Tangadi (also known as the Battle of Talikota) in 1565 led to the subsequent destruction of Vijayanagar by the combined forces of the Muslim states of the Deccan.
