Two Brothers


Last week, When i was browsing through channels in my TV, I got a chance to see this movie "Two Brothers" in HBO. This film is directed by famous director Jean-Jacques Annaud (Seven Years in Tibet (starring Brad Pitt) - Story of Dalai Lama Childhood).He depicts the cruelty done to Predators.


This is about Twin tiger cubs--one shy and gentle(Sangha), the other bold and fierce(Kumal), born amongst the ruins of an ancient temple in the jungles of Indo-China some time early last century.However, on a fateful day, the brothers are separated by fate. The bold brother is sold off to a circus, where homesickness and living in a cage rob him of his spirit. Meanwhile, the shy cub becomes the beloved companion of the governor's lonely young son, until an accident forces the family to give him away to a man who resolves to break his gentle nature and turn him into a fighter for sport. When they are fully grown the brothers find themselves reunited--but as forced enemies, pitted against each other. Atlast they reunite with their MOM.


Though i agree , it has some director's imagination. It reveals the way the Kings in last century use to kill these fascinating animals for just fun. I guess, more than thousands were hunted in the Royal hunting grounds like Ranthambore and Sariska by Maharaja's of Modern India.
I really appreciate theme of the movie - Pls do watch it, Dont miss it.

But still we are having chance to save our Big cats. So guys, Just give a thought about this.

You know a fact , India is only country to have four species of Big Cats(Royal Bengal Tiger, Asiatic Lion, Leopard and Snow Leopard)
