Former India captain Sourav Ganguly spoke his heart out on the recently demised Indian industrialist Ratan Tata.

The colossal person, who has been the driving force of TATA, passed away at the age of 86 on Wednesday (October 9) and Ganguly shared his personal interaction with him.

Apart from being a businessman, the late Ratan Tata was a magnificent human being. His philanthropic activities, dedication for the youth and humility have always been striking features associated with him, and Ganguly sounded the same while describing his meetings.

"Ratan Tata is an icon. He is a role model for so many businessmen, sportsmen, and youth on how to build things and still be humble and good. I have met and spoken to him many times but what he always has in his heart is humility with achievements," Ganguly said while speaking with OneIndia in Kolkata.

"We are mortal and all the good things in life come to an end. But people like Ratan Tata will be remembered for centuries. He is a massive institution," the former India captain added.

Ganguly also paid his respect on social media. Uploading a photo of him holding a trophy with Ratan Tata, the post wrote, "A man with tremendous dignity and class .. what an achiever. RIP."
