Several celebrities like Anushka Sharma, Priyanka Chopra, Salman Khan, Varun Dhawan wrote tributes in memory of the visionary. Kamal Haasan, Jr NTR, Rana Daggubati also shared posts for him. Sharing his personal connection with the legend, Kamal Haasan wrote on X, "Ratan Tata Ji was a personal hero of mine, someone I've tried to emulate throughout my life. A national treasure whose contributions in nation-building shall forever be etched in the story of modern India. His true richness lay not in material wealth but in his ethics, integrity, humility and patriotism. In the immediate aftermath of the 2008 Mumbai attacks, I met him while staying at the iconic Taj Hotel. In that moment of national crisis, the titan stood tall and became the embodiment of the Indian spirit, to rebuild and emerge stronger as a nation. My profound condolences to his family, friends, Tata Group and my fellow Indians." 

With over 13 million followers on X and nearly 10 million on Instagram, Ratan Tata was the 'most followed entrepreneur' in India, according to the 360 ONE Wealth Hurun India Rich List 2023. He died at a Mumbai hospital where he had been admitted since Monday.
