Mysuru: While there are hundreds of Mysureans who have still kept Srikantadatta Narasimharaja Wadiyar close to their hearts as he used to mingle with lay people, despite his royal stature, here is a common man who has gone a step ahead and given a divine status to the late Scion of Mysore royal family.
Meet Ramu, a flower vendor, who starts his day (rather every day) by garlanding the photo of Srikantadatta Narasimharaja Wadiyar by the side of the road. Only after praying to his ‘idol,’ Ramu starts selling flowers. And as if he has constant blessings of the Wadiyar, he does well in business too and is able to lead a comfortable life along with his family.
