“Ratan and I go back a long way. He’s perfection, he’s got a sense of humour, is modest and the perfect gentleman. Money was never his driving force. He’s not as relaxed in India as he is abroad.”
It can be said with certainty that, for Simi, these qualities made him not only a remarkable businessman but also a cherished friend, someone she could always admire and respect.
The sudden passing of Ratan Tata leaves the nation in shock

In fact, earlier this week whispers about the critical condition of Ratan Tata’s health surfaced online, sparking concerns among his admirers. However, Tata himself was quick to reassure the public, clarifying that it was merely a routine medical check-up related to his age and urging people not to spread rumors.
His statement brought relief to his many fans, calming fears about his well-being. Yet, just days later, on October 9, 2024, the world was stunned by the news of his sudden demise. He took his last breath in a Mumbai hospital, where he had been receiving treatment in the ICU for a serious condition.
