In his time, he was the greatest influence peddler. There was nothing that was impossible for him in India. He owned a gun factory and imported an aircraft without paying any customs duties.
His penchant was Yoga, just like it is of Baba Ramdev currently. Ramdev is close to the ruling party.
Estimated worth around USD 200 million.
However, none of them claimed to be messiahs. They were/are termed 'Swami', Godmen.

In the specific sense, "Messiah" is a concept from the Abrahamic family of faiths.

I don't think this particular combination of royal lineage and national hero is to be found in Hinduism?
