Explanation

Lady Ranu Mukherjee (Ran Aditi Mukherjee), a close associate of the Tagore family and founder of Rabindra Sadan, affectionately called young Rabindranath 'Bhanudada' - derived from his pseudonym 'Bhanusingha' used in early poetry. Victoria Ocampo was an Argentine writer who admired Tagore but wouldn't use this Bengali nickname. Mrinalini Devi was Tagore's wife (died 1902), and Kadambari Devi was his sister-in-law (died 1884) - neither used this epithet.
