Dodda Krishnaraja I - Personal Life

Personal Life

Dodda Krishnaraja was born on 18 March 1702. He was the first-born son of Kanthirava Narasaraja II, by his second wife Chelvaja Ammani Avaru. A month before his tenth birthday—upon his father's death—he acceded to the Mysore gaddi. Although he was married nine times, direct descent in the Wodeyar lineage stopped with him; a son was born to his first wife, but died aged six months. Dodda Krishnaraja died on 5 March 1732 at the age of 29, and was succeeded by an adopted son.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:

    Children’s lives are not shaped solely by their families or immediate surroundings at large. That is why we must avoid the false dichotomy that says only government or only family is responsible. . . . Personal values and national policies must both play a role.
    Hillary Rodham Clinton (20th century)

    All my life I’ve been running, from welfare officers, thugs, my father. See, there they are [the killers]. There on the bridge. I’m a dead man. Nosseros told me that. He told me. He said, “You got it all, but you’re a dead man, Harry Fabian.”
    Jo Eisinger, and Jules Dassin. Harry Fabian (Richard Widmark)
