Tata Sons Chairman Emeritus Ratan Tata shared one of his fond memories with mentor and friend JRD Tata on his 117th birth anniversary.

Talking about JRD Tata’s dream of producing a ‘Tata’ car some day, he captioned the post:

Mr. JRD Tata dreamt of the Tatas producing a “Tata” car. Mr. Sumant Moolgaokar shared in this dream. This picture was taken at the launch celebration of the TATA ESTATE at the Pune plant. One of Jeh’s many dreams became a reality. On that day, TELCO too achieved another dream for India.

Ratan Tata took over the reigns of Tata Sons after JRD Tata stepped down in 1991. The two did not share a blood relation but were connected by a special bond.
