Tilak was a very brilliant student. He was gifted with a very brilliant intellect and sharp memory. He was a Sanskrut scholar. He had studied Sanskrut from his father. In the ancient times, in order to boost up
the language, perhaps, 1 pie (Pie was a coin in olden days. 12 pies = 1 anna and 16 annas = 1 Re. Now we are using the decimal system; that is, 1 Rupee = 100 paise) was given to the one who could recite one shloka in Sanskrut. Tilak collected 200 pies (a little over 1 Re.,

doing rigorous exercise and missed his exams also for that. He was a very proficient wrestler and a swimmer too. Since his school days he was fully aware about the country’s rule being in the hands of the British and not Bharatiyas.

very effectively to send the British back. Whichever qualities, virtues he had acquired from childhood were useful for him while opposing the British. Due to his healthy physique he could survive the horrifying and politically motivated prison sentences. Despite being in the
prison and while suffering all the constraints he wrote the well acclaimed text namely “Geetarahasya’.
