Shocking news of suicidal death of VG Siddhartha, founder of Café Coffee Day, largest coffee chain in India has awakened the whole world to the core. The way the tycoon had succeeded in his business adventure and endeavours is sweet history known to all. But his sad end of life is highly emotional and full of twists and turns.
The instances of Siddhartha going missing and his body being found in the river are all emotional stories altogether that have made me nostalgic and emotional about my life experience [the whole story in the major newspapers was heartbreaking and devastating]. Some time ago I had to bear with news of the death of an elder friend who died saving the life of others drowned in the river in Tuticorin, Tamil Nadu. I had phoned his family immediately afterward.
After all, life is all about kind gestures and taking care without which the whole world will tumble down like a pack of cards. And this coffee chain tycoon story should be an emotional lesson to human society.
