Here is a small exercise. How many tigers are left in India? If you watch any television at all, the answer should be easy. Thanks to the barrage of WWF-backed advertisements starring cricketers, footballers, actors and super-cops, we all know it’s 1,411.

Hi sir i am Swathy, i am in 6th and my school is mctm and u have showed us such a beautiful movie i really enjoyed the movie. Thanks sir i will surely help our national animal and i have many ideas sir i will give u one idea to save our tigers - the idea is u can stop the steel trap which cruel poachers are setting by complaining to the senior police officer and they can be banned sir so this is my idea sir. Thank You
on Jun 6, 2010I was lucky enough to see the film. It was well shot documentary. For sure the film will force you to take an oath to save our national treasure, our national animal. Even they have got right to share our country with us.
on Jun 2, 2010Saving Tigers is like Saving Trees. It's not necessary that what man needs should survive and other's are not important. Next generation should not see tigers in Photos as we are seeing dinosaurs. so try to save the tigers.
on May 20, 2010Madhukar, the filmmakers seem to no longer have it available for download, but you can request a DVD via the link at the bottom of every page at http://truthabouttigers.org/ Mr Sahgal, a pleasure to see you here. We're doing our bit to help get the message across; while we can't guarantee that our MPs and MLAs will watch it, but we do reach quite a few of those CEOs. :)
on Apr 28, 2010The movie was a very enlightening experience about the happenings to TIGERS in India. I was just wondering if i could get a copy of the movie. I would want to showcase it an my school and my college. It would be a real good information for the rest that i can provide. I'm really interested in spread the little information to as many as i can...
on Apr 23, 2010Your reviewer has it right. The film is an amazingly simple explanation of what tigers need to survive. Kids for Tigers, the Sanctuary Tiger Programme will be holding almost 500 screenings for young persons across India. Shekar has many more such films in him. At the very least India's top 500 CEOs and all our Members of Parliament and Members of our Legislative Assemblies should be made to sit quietly while the film is screened. At least something might penetrate. And while we are at it, every print and television media head could be asked to sit in too. :-)
