Meet Trishika Kumari, who gave an heir to India's richest royal family after 400 years, property worth Rs 80000 crore, she is married to…, is from…

Meet Trishika Kumari, who gave an heir to India's richest royal family after 400 years, property worth Rs 80000 crore, she is married to..., is from... India has a long and fascinating history of royal families and they are respected and looked up to even today. One such famous royal family is the Wadiyar dynasty of Mysuru. The present head of this family is Yaduveer Krishnadatta Chamaraja Wadiyar, who was born on March 24, 1992. He is the 27th king (Maharaja) in the line. In 2016, he got married to Princess Trishika Kumari, and the following year, they welcomed their son Aadyaveer Narasimharaja Wadiyar. What made this birth special was that Aadyaveer was the first child in 400 years to be born naturally into the Wadiyar family. For centuries, it was believed that the family was under a curse, which meant no child could be born naturally to continue the royal line. Trishika Kumari broke that old belief by giving birth to Aadyaveer. Who is Princess Trishika Kumari? Trishika Kumari is the Queen (Maharani) of Mysore and the wife of Yaduveer. She comes from another royal family i.e. the Dungarpur family of Rajasthan. Her parents are Harshavardhan Singh and Maheshree Kumari. She studied at Baldwins Girls School and later graduated from Jyoti Nivas College in Bangalore. Who is Yaduveer Krishnadatta Chamaraja Wadiyar? Yaduveer Krishnadatta Chamaraja Wadiyar is the current head of the royal Wadiyar family of Mysore. He was born as Yaduveer Gopal Raj Urs, the son of Swarup Anand Gopal Raj Urs and Princess Leela Tripurasundari Devi. Although he was not born into the direct royal line, things changed after the former king, Srikantadatta Wadiyar, passed away in 2013 without leaving behind any children or naming a successor. After his death, Srikantadatta's wife adopted Yaduveer as her son, and he became the new heir to the Mysore throne. In 2015, at the age of just 23, Yaduveer was formally crowned as the 27th Maharaja of Mysore in a traditional ceremony. The Wadiyar family is one of the wealthiest royal families in India, and it is said that Yaduveer is the heir to a fortune worth nearly Rs. 80,000 crore. Yaduveer married Princess Trishika Kumari in 2016. The couple had their first son, Aadyaveer Narasimharaja Wadiyar, in 2017, who is considered the first naturally born child in the royal family after a 400-year-old belief of a curse. In 2024, the royal couple welcomed their second son, Yugadhyaksh Krishnaraja Wadiyar. What was the 400-year-old curse on the Wadiyar ryal family? A long time ago, around the year 1612, the Wadiyar kings of Mysore took control of a kingdom called Vijayanagara. During this takeover, the queen of Vijayanagara, Alamelamma, tried to escape with her treasure, but it was taken by the Mysore soldiers. As she was being chased by the Wadiyar king's men, Alamelamma ran towards the Cauvery river near a place called Malingi. Before jumping into the river, she is believed to have thrown all her jewels into the water and shouted a powerful curse. She said: 'Let Talakadu turn into a desert filled with sand,' 'Let Malangi become a dangerous whirlpool,' 'And let the Wadiyars never have children.' After this curse, the royal family faced a strange situation. For hundreds of years, the Wadiyars didn't have children of their own. Each king had to adopt a relative, like a nephew or cousin, to continue the royal line. Even though the family prayed and built temples for Alamelamma, the curse seemed unbroken. But things changed in 2017 when Maharaja Yaduveer and Maharani Trishika had a baby boy named Aadyaveer Narasimharaja Wadiyar.
