I have come across Bahuvachana being used as a means to respect someone of a very high status in modern sanskrit and also in panchatantra. An example I quote from mitrabheda here 

Which Damanaka is using to refer to Pingalaka, his king. I wish to know if such usage is allowed via any sutra of ashtadhyayi or any kashika vritti. If anyone knows please do let me know.

Some may want to correct the typo in वयं बुमः here.
