“She was living in a small portion next to my grandmother Thangammal’s house. My biological mother Soundaravalli wanted Janaki amma to bring me up as she was known to be a martinet.”

Many know Srinivasa Ramanujan as a Maths man. But beyond Mathematics, Ramanujan was an ardent devotee of Namagiri Thayar, the deity in Namakkal temple. He apparently received “permission” (utharavu) from the deity to go ahead with his Cambridge scholarship programme.
His adopted son Narayanan (72) and his grand-children perform special puja on his birthday, December 22 every year at the Namakkal temple and distribute food to the poor in his memory.
Speaking to this newspaper about his father, Narayanan said, “I was adopted by Janaki Ramanujan in 1950 as a 10-year-old. Though I was not fortunate to enjoy the warmth of my foster father, I learnt about him through Janaki amma. She told me that Ramanujan often got the solutions for tough Maths problems in his dreams. He would wake up immediately and write down the steps.”
Narayanan, a stockbroker, said he was the only person with whom Janaki amma could share her feelings.
“She was living in a small portion next to my grandmother Thangammal’s house. My biological mother Soundaravalli wanted Janaki amma to bring me up as she was known to be a martinet.”
On the tough life led by his adopted parents, he said, “Janaki amma was terribly sad that Ramanujan died at such a young age. She told me that he died due to pneumonia and TB contacted due to malnourishment and cold weather on his England trip as he did not like the food there and managed only with the podi packets shipped by his mother Komalathammal”.
Narayanan’s family receives many visitors from foreign countries who search for Ramanujan’s roots.
“We give them the information we got from Janaki amma. We received a bust of Ramanujan gifted to us by mathematical researchers in the US in 1985. Our children pray before that statue every day,” added Narayanan.
Ramanujan’s great grandchild Neha (7), however, has one unsolved puzzle — “Why does thatha look so serious in all the photos? I want him to smile.”
