The defeated Jagga Raya sought refuge in the jungle but bounced back and sought help from the Nayaks of Gingee and Madurai, both eager to get out of the Vijayanagara bond, to attack Yachamanedu and Rama Deva. Yachamanedu and Ramadeva sought support from the Tanjore Nayaks, who still treated the Vijayanagar as their authority.
