Abstract

An unparalleled poet of the 20th century, Bharathi was not only a progressive thinker but also a foreteller of future events. The former President of India, Abdul Kalam, said about dreams, "Dream! That dream is not the dream you see in your sleep. It's an ideal dream that keeps you awake." It is no exaggeration to say that Bharti dreamt of such an ideal many years before Kalam. Yes, India will be liberated anyway; we shall have breathed and swayed the air of liberation! Bharathi, who already knew that we have achieved blissful freedom by singing and dancing, it was Bharathi who sang the liberation anthem even before freedom. The most essential of his dreams are women's emancipation, unequal society, widow marriage, no child marriage, Tamil development, etc. Bharthi, who is very concerned about the welfare of women, says that women should get an education on par with men. Educating a girl only uplifts her. It will also uplift the community in which she belongs. Through that, our country becomes a superpower. Only then will the Indian flag fly in the world. Bharthi eagerly waits the day he will see Even though Bharthi's life had disappeared from this earth, he left the seeds of his dream deeply imprinted in our hearts. They started sprouting today. In today's time, we are travelling towards a higher level where men and women are equal. Many love marriages are taking place to bridge the caste differences. Widow Remarriages are encouraged. The government has passed several laws to prevent child marriage. Today's youth are working tirelessly to transform India into a superpower. It is certain that Bharathi's dream will soon come true through this.
