Sir Jai Singh became Maharajah of Alwar at the age of ten in 1892 and is recorded as being erudite and quite charming, although he also had a cruel nature. He spent extravagantly and had many guns and rifles built for him by Barella of Berlin. He owned numerous Rolls Royces, often buying two at a time, many with open cabs with spotlights for shooting tigers at night. He was eventually exiled without power in 1933 and spent the remaining four years of his life in Paris where he died in 1937.
