Chennai Trivia – the SelAm Version

So Chenthil has a great series running on his blog – A trivia column on Chennai – nee – Madras’ history. Since I pride myself on knowing a little bit more about Madras than the average citizen, I have decided to create my own little thread.

We shall begin with a simple question. Who’s the stirrup-less majesty?

To see if others too know. The sculptor didn’t commit suicide beause he forgot the stirrup, that is just folklore, he died of dysentry. So am I correct?
