It takes a hero to be a jack of all and master in most. And, luckily for India, this hero came to us in the form of a lawyer when everyone needed him the most.

Nanabhoy Palkhivala, born on January 16, 1920 is known for achieving his quest to protect the Constitution of India, and its basic structure, especially in the Kesavananda Bharati vs State of Kerala judgment that played a crucial role during the Emergency. He once wished to become an English lecturer.
