Indian Royal Families Who Still Live a Lavish Life

In India, the monarchy was abolished roughly fifty years ago. The government ruled that monarchy must be abolished with the passage of the 26th amendment to the Indian Constitution in 1971. But some of India’s royal dynasties still lead extravagant lives in spectacular grandeur. These families have a rich past that is rooted in heritage and culture as well as luxury.

Despite the fact that the majority of royal families lost its renown in the 1970s, these families have been successful in preserving it. The dynastic wealth of the Indian royal dynasties has been converted into thriving companies. Having said that, the riches of these Indian royal dynasties are incalculable.

  • The Royal Family of Jaipur
  • The Wadiyar Dynasty.
  • The Royal family of Rajkot
  • The Bhonsales’ House
  • The Gaekwads of Baroda
  • The Alsisar Royal Family
  • Royal Family of Jodhpur
  • Pataudi Clan
  • The Mewar Dynasty

1. The Royal Family of Jaipur

The blue bloods from Jaipur, as far as royal families go, have now slowly but surely gained celebrity status. The final nominal ruler of Jaipur was his Highness Bhawani Singh. However, because he didn’t have any sons, he adopted Padmanabh Singh- the son of Diya Kumari, in his old age. The youthful prince Padmanabh succeeded his father as Maharaja of Jaipur in 2011. He competes in polo at the national level and is trying to raise interest in it. The youthful king has teamed with Airbnb, in addition to the royal family having given the Rambagh Palace to Taj Hotels to manage.

He set up a suite in the Jaipur City Palace on the travel website as part of this new business venture so that visitors could come, stay, and experience life as a king. The Princess Diya Kumari foundation would receive every penny of the revenues. The young King is also a voracious traveller and has been featured on magazine covers all around the world. This family’s net wealth is above $2.8 billion, according to the Times of India.

2. The Wadiyar Dynasty.

The Kingdom of Mysore was once ruled by the Wadiyar Dynasty. The ‘Kings’ of this dynasty find their roots in the Yaduvanshi clan of Lord Krishna. In 1612, Queen Alamelamma of Vijaynagar cursed that Mysore kings would never bear children and condemned the Wadiyar family for seizing the crown. The last 400 years this curse appears to have had its influence on the family.

YaduveerKrishnaduttaChamaraj Wadiyar, who is 27 years old, is the dynasty’s current ruler. Wadiyar was not the direct heir, and in 2013 his uncle Srikantadatta Wadiyar passed away without having children. Yaduveer was raised as their own son by his wife, who also made him king. The next king is an economist with a degree in English literature. The family is said to own assets worth Rs 10,000 crore.

3. The Royal family of Rajkot

The Royal Family of Rajkot, which is currently headed by Yuvraj Mandhatasinh Jadeja, is the only royal family to ignore the clichéd idea of converting their ancestral properties into hotels and opulent palaces in favour of investing close to one hundred crore rupees in hydropower plants and the development of biofuels.

4. The Bhonsales’ House

There are many different districts in Maharashtra where Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s descendants can be found. According to legend, Udayanraje of Satara is the 13th Chhatrapati title holder. He is a well-known politician and a present BJP member. With declared assets worth 199 crore and 5 vehicles, including 2 Mercedes-Benz, a Ford Endeavour, an Audi, a Maruti Gypsy, and a Volkswagen Polo, he was the richest contender in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.

Sambhajiraje Chhatrapati, a different Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj ancestor, was proposed as a Rajya Sabha MP candidate in 2016. The family has residences in Pune and Mumbai’s Malabar Hill, as well as land in Raybag, Karnataka, which was formerly a part of the Kolhapur princely state. However, nothing is known about the family’s overall net worth. In Kolhapur, the family also manages a school.

5. The Gaekwads of Baroda

Since the early 18th century, the Gaekwads, who were originally from Pune, have ruled Baroda (now Vadodara). Samarjitsinh Gaekwad, 52, is the current head of the Baroda royal family. He also received an inheritance of property worth more than Rs 20,000 crores when he came to the throne. The Gaekwads of Baroda are the owners of the Laxmi Vilas Palace, the biggest private house in the world, out of all the Indian royal dynasties. Not only that, but Samarjitsinh also received a number of paintings by Raja Ravi Varma in addition to other valuables including gold and silver jewellery.

Moreover, he oversees the management of 17 temple trusts in Gujarat and Banaras. In addition, he built a 10-hole private golf course inside the palace. Samarjitsinh is a talented cricket player who competed for his state in the Ranji Trophy. He attempted to get involved in politics, but he has been inactive since 2017 .

6. The Alsisar Royal Family

One of the wealthiest royal families in India is that of Alsisar. The Alsisars were one of India’s most opulent royal families because they formerly controlled the kingdom of Khetri in Rajasthan. The Alsisar family still owns ornate havelis in Jaipur and Ranthambore. The ruler of the Alsisars, Abhimanyu Singh, is also a co-organizer of Magnetic Fields, one of India’s best and hippest music events. He owns one of the country’s most extravagant heritage hotels.

7. Royal Family of Jodhpur

Maharaj Gaj Singh II is the current titular ruler of Jodhpur, which was once controlled by the Rathore family. The Mehrangarh Fort and Umaid Bhawan, two of the largest private palaces and forts in the world, are owned by the same family.

Maharaj Gaj Singh II currently resides at the Umaid Bhawan Palace with his family. The palace is separated into three main sections: the residential portion, where the royal family resides; the hotel portion, which is managed by Taj Hotels with the cooperation of the family; and the tourist-friendly museum portion. The Royal Family of Jodhpur is said to be valued at 224 billion Indian rupees.

The Umaid Bhawan Palace, which is 11 hectares in size, includes 347 rooms in addition to four tennis courts, a swimming pool, and other amenities. Famous Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra wed American musician and actor Nick Jonas in this castle. The royal family’s main source of income comes from this palace. Previously, Maharaja Gaj Singh II was a Rajya Sabha member. He served as Trinidad and Tobago’s Indian High Commissioner for a while.

8. Pataudi Clan

Anyone from India has almost certainly heard of Saif Ali Khan, a popular Bollywood actor. But other people might not be aware that he is a relative of the Pataudi Nawabs. Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, a Nawab, served as the final titular head of the Pataudi Clan. He once served as the Indian Cricket Team’s captain. Saif Ali Khan was one of three children Mansoor Ali and Bollywood actress Sharmila Tagore had together.

Saif Ali Khan currently bears the title of Nawab of Pataudi, is an actor, and has impressive revenues from the Bollywood industry. He is a Bollywood actor and the owner of the Pataudi Palace, which is valued about 800 crores. He also has a lucrative marriage to Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor, which benefits the Pataudi family financially. The Wealth of This Royal Family is said to be INR 1100 crores.

9. The Mewar Dynasty

The Mewar family ranks really high among India’s wealthiest royal families. The family of Rana Sriji Arvind Singh Mewar resides in Udaipur and is the 76th custodian of the royal highness. The king, a member of a noble family, is the proprietor of the HRH Group of Hotels, a Rs 50 crore business. The group has ten hotels listed under its name, and the king is also a businessman. The unique cultural heritage of Mewar is being preserved by Shriji Arvind Singh Mewar.

Due to frequent tourist visits to the City Palace, the titular king is accountable for half of the city of Udaipur’s attractiveness. Additionally, the royal family is known for leasing palaces like Fateh Prakash Palace and the Taj Group of Hotels. In addition, the royal family is the proprietors of the lavish Jag Mandir Island Palace, which is located on Lake Pichola. Lakshyaraj Singh Mewar, the son of Arvind Singh, took on the challenge of restoring the Jag Mandir Island castle and turning it into one of the most exclusive wedding locations on earth.
