Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan, who has been chosen
the ‘Tiger Ambassador’ of Maharashtra, freshly kick started his tenure with a
tiger safari at the Sanjay Gandhi National Park, where the ‘Shahenshah’ was
chased by a tiger!
The enthralled Big B shared some photographs about this
incident on his Facebook page and wrote, “ Here it is .. in the company of the
Big Cat .. in the heart of the city .. you cannot imagine the forests that
abound in the heart of urban Mumbai ..
This tiger chased us for 4 kms .. very unusual .. they do
not normally do this ..
It is in the SGNP Reserve, right within the Film City, where
we work so often .. incredible !!”
At the event where Bachchan was appointed the Tiger
Ambasaddor of Maharashtra, the veteran also told, ''I will consider myself
worthy as a brand ambassador when tiger preservation and securing their safety
becomes successful. If my voice or face can provide anything good to this
initiative, I will pledge myself. I have been in Mumbai for 65 years. But the
safari showed me images that I have never seen before. And these are the things
that make me work for it. What makes me proud is that in the middle of the
city, there is a national park which is a miracle and we have to save it.''
