Marava War of Succession is used to refer to the war of succession between Bhavani Shankar, the illegitimate son of Raghunatha Kilavan and Tanda Teva, the heir designated by the deceased king, Vijayaraghunatha Sethupathi, for the throne of Ramnad kingdom, also known as the "Kingdom of the Marava".
Prior to his death, Kilavan had first nominated his illegitimate son, Bhavani Shankar and later, due to protests from the people, chose his younger son, Vijayaraghunatha Sethupathi to succeed him.
Meanwhile, Bhavani Shankar had earned the ire of the Thanjavur Maratha ruler Tukkoji as he had failed to keep up his promise of delivering Aranthangi to the Thanjavur Marathas.
Bhavani Shankar eventually revolted in 1720 and securing the help of the Thanjavur Maratha king Serfoji I and the Raja of Pudukkottai, invaded Vijayaraghunatha Sethupathi's seat at Aranthangi.
