M&E tracks contain all sound elements minus dialogue, which is then supplied by the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Raju Kiran
The Raju are a Telugu caste found mostly in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. Varna Status The Raju caste, which A. Satyanarayana calls the "locally dominant landed gentry", claims Kshatriya status in the varna system despite there being "no real Kshatriya varna" in the Andhra region. ''Raju'' is a Telugu language variant of the Sanskrit title ''Raja'', a term for a monarch or princely ruler. Cynthia Talbot describes the term as being: In medieval Andhra Pradesh, the title was used in both senses, and was very likely adopted by some secular Brahmins, who occupied important advisory functions. The royal usage at that time was particularly prevalent in the northern coastal areas of the region. Talbot also notes that the title, and others in use at that time, do not align with the Vedic four-fold varna system and in that sense could not refer to a caste. However, they do appear to have conformed to Temple inscriptions from the period of the Kakatiya dynasty, a South ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
