Namaste,
I read a recent post - a gem to get to know about how the British East India Company finds its roots in India. The main fact gleaned from the lengthy article is that such a thing happened only with the help of naive Indians of olden times - that the entire Madras shoreline was written-off to a certain British man 'Francis Day' by Vijayanagara kings 'Thimmanna' and 'Appayya Naik'.
The article is someone's (who I only follow) FB page and I will give the link via PM only and it is in Tamil.
Thanks,
Viraja
