It is a source of pride not only for the makers but for the entire country. The director has now returned from the United States and has shared a photo of himself with the Oscar trophy on social media, including the film’s actors Boman and Bailey in their celebration.
Kartiki Gonsalves has recently returned to Tamil Nadu and with his arrival he has shared a photo of the lead artist of his documentary on his Instagram account, which clearly shows the happiness on his face. With this photo, she wrote in the caption: “It’s been four months since we broke up and now I feel right at home.” Social media users are really liking this photo. One wrote that we have become huge fans of Boman and Bailey. Aside from this, another asked the director, “I think now we need an Oscar movie with Bowman and Bailey.”
Let me tell you, in the story of this documentary, the scene of the Tiger Reserve Elephant Camp has been shown. Bowman and Bailey talk to the elephant. Watching this movie, people in the West are amazed how a human can talk to an animal. This documentary shows the ancient tradition of India, in which a close relationship between humans and animals has been demonstrated. Seeing the emotional relationship between a human and an animal on the screen makes people cry.

By winning the Oscar award, the Tamil documentary made history and became the first Indian production to win in the short documentary category.
