But his lessons will remain unfinished and end in tragedy. For today is the day that he will learn the importance of tradition from his father Sultan – Leader of the Leopards. For him it is going to be a day that will change his life forever. It is an ordinary day for each of them except Yuvi, the young leopard cub. The animals of Borivali National Park wake up and go about their business as usual.
A friend and I were discussing this we agreed it was hard to get the Hindi version voices out of our heads! However, for the purpose of this review, I will stick to looking at this as a Hollywood version of an Indian animated film… with the caveat that sometimes my Bolly-fanness colored my thoughts.ĭelhi Safari is the story of a journey undertaken by a cub leopard Yuvi (Tara Strong), his mother Begam (Vanessa Williams), a monkey Barjrangi (Carlos Alazraqui), Bagga, the lovable bear (Brad Garrett) and Alex the parrot (Tom Kerry) as the forest they live in is on the verge of destruction.
Now, first I have to admit that being a Bollywood lover both hindered and added to my enjoyment of this film. It is the Hollywood version, which by the way has been shortlisted for the Oscars for animation, that we are going to take a look at today. I was also excited when I heard that in an unique move, Advani and the producers also made a version with an American cast that includes some of the greats of Hollywood, which included Jason Alexander, Brad Garrett, Vanessa Williams, Jane Lynch, Christopher Lloyd and Cary Elwes – a nice coup. When I heard about that project I was very intrigued, and when I saw the trailers and heard the fab songs by Shankar Ehsaan and Loy and I couldn’t wait to see and hear more about Delhi Safari. The original Hindi film version was voiced by some of the greats of Bollywood, including Boman Irani, Govinda, Akshaye Khanna and Urmilla Matondkar. we just are so selfish that we record any and every activity as though we have total rights to do so.”Ī third user commented: “Such night visits and safaris should be banned.Directed and written by Bollywood director Nikhil Advani ( Kal Ho Na Ho, Salaam-E-Ishq), Delhi Safari is his first foray into an animated adventure feature. He should be really ashamed of himself.” Another Twitter user wrote: “Very rightly said. Whosoever has taken this footage has little or no knowledge about nature and wildlife. One Twitter user commented: “A truly insensitive capture. Many claimed that it was a gross invasion of privacy for the predatory animals and that they should be left alone to hunt and eat in peace. Netizens were disappointed at the way in which the footage was captured. Meanwhile, the location where the video was shot is yet to be known. While Nanda noted that the capture was ‘perfect’ by the photographers in the caption, he also questioned the right to film the animals at night, under a glaring spotlight, that too while they hunt. However, seconds later, the big cat was seen leaving its prey on the ground and running away not long after it was frightened by the bright light and sound made by photographers. In the rather visible clip-due to the amount of light present around the incident-the black leopard locked its jaws on the neck of the deer carcass. Both by the leopard & the videographer😞😞 But who gave the right to capture these rare moments of nature in full glare of spot light? WA fwd. But who gave the right to capture these rare moments of nature in the full glare of the spotlight?”Ī perfect capture. The IFS officer captioned the video: “A perfect capture. The clip was shared on the micro-blogging site Twitter by Indian Forest Service (IFS) officer Susanta Nanda, who regularly takes to social media to raise awareness about different kinds of wildlife and how they are being affected by human intervention. However, what’s alarming about the footage was that it was shot under bright light in the dark. In an unexpected incident, a video showing a black leopard hunting a deer in the wild has surfaced on the internet.
