His elder son, Rājyavardhana succeeded him and soon plunged into a warfare of vengeance against Devagupta of Malwa who had slain Grahavarmă the young king of Kanauj (Kanyakubja) the husband of Harsa's elder sister, Rājyashri, who was then taken prisoner at Kanauj. Rājyavardhana's operation against Devagupta of Malwa proved successful, but he fell a prey to Shashāngka, King of Central Bengal, who was tied in close alliance with the Devaguptas of Malwa.
