By: Hemant Abhishek, and I’ll forget; show me and I may remember; involve me and I’ll understand.” Of the hundred times that we’ve come across messages regarding tiger conservation, there’s barely one that has stirred us to action. But to change that and show us the plight of the king of the jungle Shivani Wazir Pasrich in collaboration with the Taj Mahal Hotel has launched a three-pronged approach aimed at ecological conservation in an entertaining, engaging and hopefully effective way. Shivani Wazir Productions has produced a theater performance, I Am The Tiger, that with the help of audience feedback will develop into a full-fledged musical over the course of the next year. About her inspiration and the project, Shivani informs, “It was my childhood friend and conservationist Dr Latika Nath Rana’s idea that we should do something for the conservation of tigers. My mother in law had painted a picture of a tiger and recently gifted my father-in-law another tiger painting. I don’t know who is influenced by whom. I don’t know which is the source and which is the result. It’s closely knit, and we plan to develop it over the year with the inputs we receive.”Read Full: Time to save the tiger | The Asian Age, Image: flickr.com
