The Maharaja insisted on personally killing the 100th tiger because he was determined to defy the prophecy that foretold his death at the hands of a tiger. Having already killed 99 tigers, he believed that only by personally hunting the 100th tiger could he prove his power over fate and secure his position as the ruler. He was deeply motivated by pride and a desire to control his destiny, not allowing anyone else to take the honor of killing the final tiger. This obsession with his own fate ultimately led to the ironic and tragic end of his life.
