Tiger Shroff writes to govt to protect tigers

“I know environmental issues are important to you, as they are to me. I join my friends at People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India in hoping that under your leadership, we will see the government focus its conservation efforts toward protecting India’s remaining forests and bringing in additional measures to safeguard tigers and other animals in our precious jungles,” Shroff said in his letter.

The actor, who had previously sponsored a female tiger in a zoo, pointed out that the place where tigers really need protection is in their natural homes, where they have ample space to roam and can spend time with their families and engage in other natural behaviour, a PETA release said.

Tiger joins a growing list of celebrities – including Jackie Shroff, John Abraham, Aishwarya Rai, Virat Kohli, Sonakshi Sinha, Jacqueline Fernandez, Madhuri Dixit, Raveena Tandon and others who have teamed up with PETA to help animals.

Shroff will be seen as a superhero in Balaji Motion Pictures’ upcoming film A Flying Jatt.
