Archana
Puran
Singh
:
Rest
in
peace,
sir.
I
met
you
long,
long
ago,
a
young
girl
all
set
to
enter
the
land
of
her
dreams.
During
our
hour
long
conversation
little
did
young
me
realise
that
I
was
meeting
THE
living
legend
Ratan
Tata,
and
you
graciously
gave
no
indication
of
just
how
precious
your
time
was.

You
gave
me
your
undivided
attention
as
I
prattled
on
about
my
dreams
of
making
it
big
in
Bombay
city
and
you
were
kind,
supportive
and
inspiring
in
the
words
of
advice
you
gave
me.
I
write
this
post
in
gratitude
and
regret;
gratitude
for
your
words
that
inspired
me
and
strengthened
my
resolve
to
become
what
I
have
over
these
past
few
decades,
and
regret
for
not
having
been
able
to
thank
you
for
the
same,
and
for
never
having
been
able
to
meet
you
a
second
time
to
personally
express
my
deepest
admiration
for
your
integrity,
honesty,
your
philanthropy,
your
nationalism,
and
oh
so
much
more!

I
do
recall
that
I
called
you
sir
and
you
said:
Just
call
me
Ratan
please.
Your
absolute
simplicity
and
gentlemanly
charm
are
unforgettable
even
after
4
decades.
Thank
you
for
the
honour
of
having
known
you
for
just
an
hour,
Ratan,
sir.

Thank
you
for
being
a
true
Indian
nationalist
and
for
inspiring
more
than
just
one
generation
of
Indians
to
be
more
than
they
thought
they
could
be.
May
your
beautiful
soul
rest
in
peace
and
know
the
bounty
and
grace
of
the
Almighty
for
all
eternity.

Ronit
Roy:

Whenever
I’ve
been
asked
by
the
press
or
others,
who
I
am
a
fan
of
and
who
I
considered
my
icon
I
unhesitatingly
answered…Sir
Ratan
Tata.

I
started
reading
and
learning
more
about
this
great
and
fascinating
gentleman
especially
after
the
Mumbai
blasts.
The
more
I
found
out
about
him
the
more
my
awe
for
him
grew.
I
aspired,
but
knew
that
however
much
I
aspire
to
be
I
wouldn’t
be
able
to
become
completely
the
human
being
that
he
was.
However,
most
of
the
goodness
in
my
being
I
will
largely
credit
to
him
and
I
diligently
will
continue
on
that
path.

‘I
always
thought
that
one
day
I
would
somehow
get
to
meet
him
and
take
a
photo
with
him.
But
now
that’s
not
to
be.
Thank
you
Ratan
Sir
for
changing
me
as
a
human
being
and
showing
me
the
true
light
of
life.
May
your
soul
R.I.P.

If
anyone
will
stand
the

time
alongside

everything
you’ve
