Who was Achyuta Deva Raya?

He patronised Kannada poet Chatu Vittalanatha, the great composer and singer Purandaradasa, and the Sanskrit scholar Rajanatha Dindima II. Upon his death, the succession was disputed. His nephew, Sadasiva Raya, finally became king while yet a child, under the regency of Aliya Rama Raya, a son-in-law of Krishnadevaraya.
