Years ago, Simi mentioned that she had dated Ratan Tata for a short period during her active years in Bollywood. She noted that although they parted ways, they remained very close friends.
In a 2011 interview with The Times of India, Simi expressed that she and Ratan shared a long history together, describing him as perfect, possessing a great sense of humor, being modest, and embodying the qualities of a true gentleman.
She also remarked that money was never his primary motivation and observed that he seemed more relaxed abroad than he did in India.
Ratan Tata passed away on the evening of October 9, Wednesday. He had been hospitalized at Breach Candy Hospital in Mumbai following a sudden drop in blood pressure and was in critical condition in the ICU. The news of his death was announced late that night.
His mortal remains are displayed at the National Centre for Performing Arts (NCPA) in south Mumbai on Thursday, October 10, 2024, from 10 am to 4 pm, providing the public an opportunity to pay their respects. His last rites will be held later in the day in the Worli area of Mumbai.
Ratan Tata was a respected leader who made a huge difference in the Tata Group and was known for his generosity and kindness. He was truly loved by people in India.
