==Life and works==
Rangarajan was born in Kumbakonam to Sanskrit scholar R.V. Krishnamacharya.〔(Ra.Ki. Rangarajan passes away ), ''India Everyday'', August 19, 2012.〕 Rangarajan began writing at the age of 16 for ''Sakthi'', a literary magazine run by V. Govindan.〔 Later, he worked for another journal ''Kalachakkaram''.〔 He then became associated with the popular Tamil weekly ''Kumudam'' for over four decades (~1950-1990) during which time he became a household name among Tamil readers.〔〔 He wrote more than 1,500 short stories and over 50 novels〔(Ra. Ki. Rangarajan passes away ), B. Kolappan, ''The Hindu'', August 19, 2012〕 that included several translated works from English such as ''Papillon'' and some Sidney Sheldon and Jeffrey Archer novels.〔〔 He was the first person to write a Tamil historical novel (''Naan, Krishna Devarayan'') in first-person narrative, inspired by the English novel ''I Claudius''.〔 Rangarajan said he wrote the novel "because not much has been written about Krishna Deva Raya or the Vijayanagar Empire. He was one of the greatest kings with many dimensions." The novel involved extensive research, including visits to libraries, as well as discussions with historians and artists. Rangarajan stated that he was "an admirer of Kalki Krishnamurthy" and that he "tried to emulate his style."〔(Peppy and prolific ), ''The Hindu'', March 10, 2011.〕 Rangarajan said his inspirations were Charles Dickens, Alexander Dumas and Jeffrey Archer in English; Kalki Krishnamurthy in Tamil.〔
Some of his stories were made into films, notably including ''Sumai Thaangi''.〔
He died 18 August 2012, at 85 years old.〔 He had two sons and three daughters.〔
