Srinivasa was born in 1887 in Erode, Tamil Nadu. He went on to study in Trinity College in Cambridge, England, after his genius was discovered by a British mathematician, GS Hardy, with whom Srinivasa corresponded through letters.
Srinivasa’s accomplishment in the field of mathematics were interrupted, as he was not able to adjust in England.
Being an orthodox Brahmin, Srinivasa was not able to receive a vegetarian diet and was also hospitalised due to ill health. He returned to India and breathed his last in Kumbakonam, Tamil Nadu. Srinivasa died in 1920, when he was just 32.
In 2012, the then Prime Minister Manmohan Singh declared 22 December as National Mathematics Day.
Recently, Dev Patel-starrer ‘The Man Who Knew Infinity’ (2015) was one of the latest tributes to the mathematics wizard by the popular cinema.
