leaving no heirs to the Pallava throne.

Reign

Paramesvaravarman succeeded his father

Chalukyas and their Ganga allies and Paramesvaravarman had to surrender and accept humiliating conditions. To avenge this humiliation, Paramesvaravarman subsequently attacked the Gangas but was defeated and killed in battle. Ugrodhaya (A neck ornament) was taken from him and the Ganga King assumed the title Permanadi. Following Paramesvaravarman's death in 731, the Simhavishnu
line of Pallavas became extinct.

A hero-stone inscription attributed to his reign indicates that he ruled at least for 6 years.[1][2]
