Namaste, Ma'am...Aapko 1 story sunata hoon....
In the summer of 1980, a distraught 7th grade boy stood in the courtyard of a modest house in Mylapore, watching his father toss his cricket bat down a deep well. A fast bouncer had shattered the boy's spectacles during a local match & his father, a renowned Sanskrit logician, was terrified for his son's sight.
"Your cricket days are done," his father declared, handing him a violin. "If you want to master precision, master this."
The boy did not throw a tantrum. He directed his focus toward the strings, training until he was performing alongside musical legends, even taking direct corrections from Bharat Ratna M.S. Subbulakshmi.
5 yrs later, he suffered another blow: he failed to clear the IIT-JEE examination.
He did not give up. He enrolled in a regional engineering college, quietly mastering computer science logic gates. He eventually worked his way into IIT Madras as a postgrad researcher, earned a PhD, joined as a prof & eventually became the Director of the very institute that had once turned him away.
By 2011, while the world was building consumer mobile apps, this prof was looking at a hidden national vulnerability: every radar, fighter jet, banking server & defense system in India was running on foreign-designed microprocessors.
He had a single question in his mind: "We can test that a foreign chip does what we WANT it to do. But can we guarantee it does not do something we DO NOT want it to do when a war starts?"
He proposed building a completely indigenous, industrial-grade microprocessor from scratch. Global tech giants insisted it could not be done w/o billions of dollars in infrastructure & massive foreign patents.
He did not care. Working out of cramped labs on long shifts, he & his team adopted the open source RISC-V instruction set. They hand-coded logic gates, mapped silicon layouts & verified billions of instruction cycles.
In July 2018, a tiny 16mm² piece of silicon codenamed Risecreek arrived back at the lab. The team wired it up, flipped the switch & watched a flickering monitor as the Linux operating system booted on 100% Indian-designed silicon for the 1st time in history.
Today, his SHAKTI processor architecture powers everything from defense communications to space grade controllers built in collaboration with ISRO.
That young boy whose father threw his cricket bat down a well...
The student who missed the JEE list in 1985...
The violinist who turned down the official IIT Director's mansion to stay in his family home & protect his late father's Sanskrit library...
His name is Prof. Veezhinathan Kamakoti.

Is it s surprise there was arson rioting and murderous assault on police?
Are these handful of arsonists representatives of the 250 million Gen Z
Who are pious go temples trecking hundreds of kilometres
Whose numbers have galloped as rural and urban entrepreneurs as compared to 2014 by 4 to 5x
Whose number moee than doubling every year
Who are transforming into job providers from being job seekers
Who are building rockets drones
Who are topping in diverse global sports competitions
As compared to the real Gen Z look at the profile of the fake Gen Z called CJP in AI Gemini
The achievement of the individual CJP leaders is only the Janatar Mantar agitation that led to anarchy
Had this group not been allowed to protest near parliament and in Ramlila Maidan instead they would never made the kind of news they have made
@the_cricketest amazing piece..Half the battle is won outside the playing ground..classic eg this..knowing your weakness and taking that hard yard to correct it during the twilight of your career speaks a lot about the man’s character..
I never thought the final act of #KishkindhaKaandam can be topped until what i saw in #Eko Peak peak staging, music and performances..Malayalam cinema continue to amaze me beyond words.
@sshivu@JioHotstar I really enjoyed the Malayalam version of it..But yeah i agree with you on the native language part of it..People who don’t know different Malayalam slangs wouldn’t have appreciated movies like a Angamaly diaries or a Pranchiyettan..
#ENGvINDTest After all the grind and criticism he faced for the last couple of days, to come back and play this kind of innings speak a lot about his toughness than the skills..innings from the top drawer..#gill
@sumanthraman A guy who still haven't accepted his defeat in 2020 and continue to claim that he won that election is making claims and you are believing it? 😀There were lot of ridiculous claims he has made on leaders of canada, Ukraine, Russia etc..Come on Doc..show some better judgement
This sums up the tragic episode..And nobody is talking about that very influential minister who gave a nod for the parade..finally when things go south keep a policeman's head on the chopping table..justice done..#shame#RCB
#RohitSharma𓃵 Congratulations on your illustrious test career Sharmaji ..Could have been better I got to say..Continue being that beast in your favourite format until 2027..
