First, Virupaksha Raya managed to rule for a few months before he was murdered by his own sons. Bukka Raya II then succeeded him as emperor. However, Bukka Raya II only reigned for a short time period before he was overthrown by his brother Deva Raya I who took the throne. His fate remains unknown.
