Gopalakrishnan's great- great- great grandfather Ranganathan was born in 1824 in a land owning a Tamil Brahmin family. The period is famous for the formation of Indian National Congress, 1877 famine, introduction of postal system, etc.Then came the era of the great thinker and philosopher Periyar E. V.
