Aryabhata was the first of the major mathematician-astronomers from the classical age of Indian mathematics and Indian astronomy. His works include the Āryabhaṭīya and the Arya-siddhanta. For his explicit mention of the relativity of motion, he also qualifies as a major early physicist. So let us dive a little deep into his life and study his greatness, and by doing so let us move one step closer in becoming a great ourselves.
