Our Bhaskarettan

In memoriam of Bhaskarettan

Archana and Hariharasudhan, Singapore

The most cherishing memory of having met Sri. Bhaskara Gupta, was on the eve of my brother’s wedding. Bhaskara ettan was so glad to meet us and especially my husband Hari (who hails from Villupuram district) as he had worked in Tamil Nadu. We were amazed to hear Bhaskara ettan speaking impeccable English, accentuated in the British way. Bhaskara ettan enquired whether the district of South Arkot was divided. He could clearly remember the historic event of the district of Arcot, which was divided into the South and North. We were surprised at the knowledge that he possessed.

We will very fondly cherish those few moments we spend with Sri. Bhaskara Gupta. Such souls, very rarely are born. He was truly a genius, some simply failed to understand. May his family be blessed by his goodness. Surely he will live in the memory of many.
