Ratan Tata recently shared about his younger brother on Instagram, with a heartwarming caption, ‘Those were the real happy times’. The post went viral on social media with record likes and shares. But, who is the man in the picture? Ratan Tata’s younger brother Jimmy Tata. Truly an unexplored gem! The more we get to know him, the more respectable he is for his simple lifestyle.
Jimmy lives in a 6th floor 2 BHK apartment in Colaba, Mumbai. A man who owns huge stakes in big corporates like TCS, Tata Motors, Tata Steel, Tata Chemicals, Indian Hotels and Tata Power has given up all his business interests and lives in this two-bedroom apartment in Colaba. Quite surprising right?
Just like the proverb ‘Unheard songs are more beautiful’, Jimmy also is a package of surprises. In this modern era, when people are breathing technology, Jimmy on the contrary does not use mobile and watch TV. There is no secretary or assistant for him. He is connected with the world through the morning newspaper, and he is a bachelor too. Also, visitors are not encouraged at his home, whereas he also goes out occasionally.
Do you think he might be lazy? Well, No! He is a good squash player too. Then, what could be driving this millionaire to leave the hustle and bustle of married life and business life behind to lead a life of utter simplicity.
Undoubtedly, it’s the absolute bliss beyond money and fame. The core belief they follow is that happiness comes from giving rather than receiving. These are the living examples of those who find grace rather than pomp, is what makes Ratan Tata and Jimmy Tata an incredible individuals.
