Pusapati Vijayarama Gajapati Raju I was camping in a "Tent", basking in the "glory" of the war, which annihilated his enemy. "Tandra Paparayudu" along with "Devulapalli Peddanna" and "Buddaraju Venkaiah" managed to reach the tent in which Pusapati Vijayarama Gajapati Raju I was sleeping. Paparayudu gained entry through the rear of the tent, while the other two stood guard at the entrance. He woke up Pusapati Vijayarama Gajapati Raju I shouting "Puli, Puli... Bobbili Puli" "(Tiger, Tiger... The Tiger of Bobbili)". Pusapati Vijayarama Gajapati Raju I tried to divert his attention saying that "Velama" heroes should not be little their clan as cowards gaining entry through the backdoor. "You have wiped out our entire clan through dubious means and have no right to get ethical treatment," replied Paparayudu and stabbed him repeatedly in the chest. Hearing the commotion, the bodyguard of Pusapati Vijayarama Gajapati Raju I tried to enter the tent but was killed by Peddanna, who was guarding the entrance. "The entire army was alerted and the Bobbili tiger Paparayudu and the other two killed themselves."
