A
Amartya Sen
💡 Explanation:
Rabindranath Tagore named Amartya Sen (son of his secretary Ashutosh Sen) when he was a baby. Tagore predicted the child would achieve greatness. Sen later won the Nobel Prize in Economics (1998), fulfilling Tagore's prediction. Satyajit Ray, CV Raman, and Mani Bhowmik were not sons of Tagore's secretary.
