Bharathidasan (IPA: / ˈbɑːˌrʌðiˈðɑːˌsʌn /; born K. Subburathinam 29 April 1891 – 21 April 1964), was a 20th-century Tamil poet and rationalist writer whose literary works handled mostly socio-political issues. He was deeply influenced by the Tamil poet Subramania Bharathi and named himself "Bharathi dasan" meaning follower or adherent of Bharathi.
Bharathidasan was a Tamil poet and rationalist who created many literary works. Together with poetry he also wrote film scripts, plays, essays and short stories. Mahakavi Subramanya Bharathi was his guru and so he changed his original name, Kanagasubburathinam to Bharathidasan.
Bharathidasan’s ideas and ideology differed radically from the philosophy of Subramania Bharathi in several respects, but, like Subramania Bharathi, Bharathidasan also vehemently supported feminine liberation from the clutches of patriarchy.
