Those men sticking their neck out have nerves of steel. Even it’s roar makes one shiver, let alone sighting it.

I can never get tired of saluting & bowing before the rescuers & the villagers who aid in the rescue operations involving wild animals

The animals are scared & can act aggressively (natural).. yet the rescuers help them & set an example for all the rest of us

This beasty Tiger would easily be over 250+kgs and 10-12 feet in length. Can’t imagine if there’s possibly any way to escape this moment other than the Tiger himself wants no harm to humans as usual.

Non-political workers gathered to see the superstar, but exhaustion, heat, and poor planning caused chaos. People collapsed, ambulances couldn't reach, and police presence was inadequate. Vijay's team ignored instructions, and the narrow roads and insufficient crowd control added to the tragedy.
