Sharing his experience, Rana said: “We have a great story to tell with ‘Haathi Mere Saathi’. It is a wholesome journey of a man who is closely connected to nature, best friends with elephants and a faithful protector of their community. The film draws light on some serious issues faced by these communities and the thorough dedication to the cause.”
Set in deep forests and right in the middle of royal elephants and their protector community, ‘Haathi Mere Saathi’ shows those emotions which connect humans and animals.
