When the Obrenović dynasty came back to Serbia in 1858, Blaznavac was immediately arrested and expelled to his native village of Blaznava and deprived of all titles.
•
His father, Petar, was a rural merchant and shopkeeper from Blaznava, although a story circulated that he was an illegitimate son of Prince Miloš Obrenović and a lady of Miloš's household whom Miloš married off to a village storekeeper before Blaznavac was born in 1824.

He died suddenly of a heart attack on April 5, 1873, and was buried in the family tomb of Jevrem Obrenović in Rakovica.
