Ramanujan was just 32 years old when he died in the city of Madras (now known as Chennai) in South India on April 26, 1920. A college dropout he learned mathematics from S.L. Loney's book on trigonometry and a "do it yourself" type of a book of problems and formulae written by an obscure English Tutor meant for those who wanted to appear for the tripos exam in Cambridge, England. Bewitched by Ramanujan's genius, G.H. Hardy an atheist, pacifist and a mathematician from Cambridge invited him to there in 1914 for a few years. Ramanujan graduated in a couple of years, published a few papers with Hardy but was stuck in Cambridge for six long cold years during the first world war. Friendless, lonely, undernourished and isolated from his family he became ill. The cause of his illness remained undiagnosed. Some say he suffered from tuberculosis, some say he had developed an abscess in his liver. He also appears to have become mentally fragile and is rumoured to have attempted suicide by jumping before a train in a London subway station. A few years before he left for England he was married to Janaki a girl barely 10 years old, chosen by his other mother Komlatammal as his bride. No doubt, Ramanujan's mathematics was great but greater was his personal tragedy. Janaki was barely 17 years when Ramanujan returned to India a terminally sick man. As his widow, Janaki lived to a ripe old age of over 80.
Ramanujan's mathematics, inspires several mathematicians even today. People wonder where he got his beautiful insight into the abstract formulations of the number theory. Ramanujan himself unable to explain the source of his powers, attributed his genius to his family deity Namagiri. He will forever be remembered as the Indian wonder-boy of mathematics, perhaps the first global Indian.
