Well, so much has been and is being written about the great mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan. And why not? A genius deserves to be acknowledged and get his due for his geniousity. They say behind every successful man, there’s a lot of unsuccessful years. Ramanujan too had his share of trials and tribulations before achieving unimaginable heights of success in mathematics.
But to make the story complete and do full justice, is it also not important to acknowledge the woman behind this successful man? Though not much is known about her contribution to his success, but it can be imagined, and rightly so, that without her sacrifice, this mathematical genius would not have been able to fully focus on his theorems or immerse himself in his equations and come out with flying colours, especially during his stint in Cambridge (1914-1919).
The turning point came in 1913 when Ramanujan sent a letter to G H Hardy, a renowned mathematics professor at Trinity College, Cambridge.
Ramanujan once told Janaki that his name would be known in 100 years' time – and in the last decades of her life she began to see this prediction coming true. Thanks to her, the notes she had kept turned up in Cambridge 60 years after Ramanujan's passing away. In 1987, the then Indian PM, Rajiv Gandhi, presented her with her own a copy of the “lost notebook”.
In 1950, one of her friends, Soundaravalli, died suddenly entrusting her with her 7-year-old son, W Narayanan. Janaki brought him up and became a foster mother to him. Narayanan took voluntary retirement from State Bank of India in 1988, about 6 years before Janaki passed away, to take care of her health. Janaki breathed her last on the morning of April 13, 1994, at her residence in Triplicane, Chennai, at the age of 94.
Well, a woman can be behind a man’s success, have impact on him: motivate him, support him, sacrifice for him so he could do whatever he wants. Very difficult to gauge what was (and how much was) Janaki’s contribution in shaping this mathematical genius from India but yes, she was undeniably the woman behind this successful man.
Small wonder, they say behind a successful man there is a proud, sacrificing wife.
A person’s success depends only on him/her; on how hard he/she works in order to achieve whatever he’s/she’s aiming for.
Robert Kanigel book on Ramanujan is called “The Man Who Knew Infinity”, which has now been made into a film. Dev Patel portrays the role of Srinivasa Ramanujan, while Devika Bhise plays the role of Janaki.
