How one message changes everything for Ratan Tata

Ratan Tata’s remarkable achievements and contributions might never have happened if not for a significant turn of events that brought him back to India. He was born on December 28, 1937, to Naval and Sooni Tata. After his parents separated, he and his younger brother, Jimmy, were raised by their grandmother, Navajbai Tata. At 17, Ratan ventured to the United States to pursue his higher education at Cornell University, where he spent seven formative years. He earned a Bachelor of Architecture degree, a period that greatly influenced his outlook on life. Immersed in California’s vibrant culture, Ratan considered settling in Los Angeles. However, life took a different turn when he was called back to India, a decision largely influenced by his deep bond with his grandmother, altering the course of his destiny.
