Narasimha Raya II was the second son of King Saluva Narasimha Deva Raya. He came to power following the assassination of his elder brother Thimma Bhupala. Though he was a crowned king of Vijayanagara Empire, the real power lay in the hands of the empire's able commander Tuluva Narasa Nayaka. In 1505, Narasimha Raya II was murdered in Penukonda where he had been kept in confinement by Tuluva Narasa Nayaka.
