Rajaraja Cholan(tamil king) seems to be only person who invaded foreign countries and ruled them from India?
India succumbed to foreign invasions regulary and suffered from Gazni,Babar,Alexander etc. But there was only one king who sent his army to countries like Burma, Java Sumatra and captured them. Is there any other king in the history of India who have achieved such a success?

I think after Alexander's time, India gained some territories back:
Seleucus recognized the Mauryan empire and gave up the eastern territories, including Gandara and Arachosia (i.e., the country northeast of modern Qandahar). (ref.1)
It also appears that Sri Lanka was ruled by India at least once (ref.2)
You are right, India was invaded many times and mostly on the receiving end.
