Hi Narayanan, thanks for leaving that hearty welcome on my blog. I am finally back, feeling elated. Thats an interesting question? I have seen this statue, lets see gotta find out more.
yup i think it is the saddle or whatever that is missing and i think some one pointed it out on the day of the inaugural and out of shame he hung himself...as he prided it to be the pinnacle of his craftsmenship...
there is another story like this...the architect of taj hotel in mumbai also committed suicide...am not sure how true this story is...but apparently, the hotel front side was supposed to face the ocean...adha ulta-va kattitaanga itseems!!

The sculptor was ashamed and story goes that he committed suicide.!

After all, its Munroe's leg that was hanging in the air and not the sculptor's? idhukkellam poi suicide pannikalaama?

Eh appadiya.... if the legs were hanging....eduthu maatte vendiyathu thaane:(

Oh I didnot know this story, though I was born and brought up in chennai.

Folks,
Thanks for all your comments.
J.R. Said it right. I heard that the sculptor was ashamed..when he realized he missed the STIRRUP in the wonderful statue.
People took pride in their work which forced them to take such decisions to even commit suicide.
I googled but couldn't find any info. about Lord Monroe, other than him being a Governor of Madras. Looks like he died of Cholera.

capriciously_me, intha kathai romba superaa irukkae... ultava katra varaikkum atha yaarum kavanikalaiya?
C. Me - I think you are kidding??
PVS - I think we should dig this out..I'll google it today.
Folks, while the legend does exist, Chancery, who sculpted this statue didn't commit suicide.
Plus, Lord Munro was fond of bareback riding and therefore needn't necessarily have to have the stirrups.
