Varma was also an English language scholar.^{[citation needed]} His diary The Diary of C. Raja Raja Varma was published by Oxford University Press (edited by Erwin Neumayer and Christine Schelberger).^[2] It is considered^{[by whom?]} one of the most important and authentic source materials on the last ten years of the life of Raja Ravi Varma.^{[citation needed]}

On 4 January 1905 after an operation for inflammation of the intestines, Raja Varma died childless at Bangalore. His nephew said that Varma regretted not having provided well for his wife, Janaki, who outlived him.^{[citation needed]}
