Dr. Ranjit Bijoor’s ‘THE SCAR’, dedicated to renowned surgeon Dr. Sultan A. Pradhan, sells out within 15 minutes as a deeply personal journey becomes a humanitarian initiative.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 12: Having survived cancer not once but twice, Mumbai-based serial entrepreneur, educationist and philanthropist Dr. Ranjit Bijoor is transforming his personal battle for survival into a humanitarian mission to help others.

His second book, THE SCAR, featuring a foreword by eminent cancer surgeon Dr. Sultan A. Pradhan, was unveiled at a glittering Rotary function attended by over 300 prominent Rotarians from across Rotary International District 3141.

The launch was graced by District Governor Elect Deepak Jiandani, Incoming First Lady Ujwala Jiandani, Past Rotary International Director Raju Subramaniam, District Learning Facilitator Chetan Desai, and Past District Governors Harjit Singh and Jayant Kulkarni.

The response was extraordinary, with every available copy selling out within just 15 minutes. Bijoor’s deeply personal account of his two battles with cancer left several members of the audience visibly emotional.

Founder of British Learning, an international education organisation established in 1999, Bijoor is now increasingly dedicating his entrepreneurial experience and personal journey towards philanthropy and humanitarian causes.

Inspired by the Japanese philosophy of Kintsugi, THE SCAR carries a threefold humanitarian mission. First, it is an inspirational account intended to offer courage and hope to people facing life’s greatest challenges. Second, the net proceeds from the sale of the book go towards funding cancer screenings for women at the Head & Neck Cancer Institute. Third, copies can be gifted to hospitals, oncology clinics and cancer-care centres, bringing emotional strength and encouragement to patients and cancer survivors.

Priced at ₹800, the book represents an unusual convergence of personal storytelling, cancer awareness and charitable giving.

For Bijoor, the real success of THE SCAR lies not in the number of copies sold, but in the number of lives it can touch, the women it can help screen and the hope it can restore.

Having fought cancer twice and survived, this entrepreneur-turned-philanthropist is now determined to ensure that his personal scars become a source of healing and hope for others.
