The Wildlife Goodwill Ambassador of Maharashtra and actor, Raveena Tandon was in conversation with our Editor-in-Chief, Kamiya Jani, for this episode of Sunday Brunch. We met at Earth Cafe in BKC to eat good food and talk about everything under the sun and also the jungles of India. The ‘Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi’ actor highlighted how it is essential to spread awareness and educate individuals about its importance when discussing the wildlife of India.
Raveena Tandon On Importance Of Indian Wildlife Education, Heritage And Culture
Raveena is forever enthralled by the beauty and tranquillity India has to offer. Humongous mountains, expansive seas, picturesque terrains, forests, spectacular wildlife, and more from all directions is what truly makes India an incredible nation. She believes that our country is “unbeatable globally,” and we wholeheartedly agree with her!
She added, “It is something that I consciously made an effort to do with my kids; it is important to know and learn about their heritage. That is very important for our kids to know.” The actor elaborated on how she urges her kids to see the wonders of India, every nook and cranny, before touring abroad. In this manner, she pushes her kids to immerse themselves in Indian culture and heritage more.

There Is A Bit Of “Wildlife Illiteracy”
During interesting conversations with Raveena Tandon, we spoke about the strict rules and regulations in the Indian jungles and how the authorities abide by them. She reflected on the need to increase efforts towards wildlife education as she occasionally experiences “wildlife illiteracy.” She elaborated that people go on jungle safaris and do not follow basic rules like no littering, not screaming for an animal’s attention or other senseless activities.
Some of those mindless activities disturb the animals in their natural habitat. It is their home and you shouldn’t gather attention to yourself. Rather, you should witness beauty in its most natural form and have an unforgettable experience!
The actor worded her thoughts perfectly: “If you are in his (tiger’s) house, on his territory, you need to be a quiet observer and leave the animal on its own.” This is another indication of the need to have more fruitful wildlife education in our country.
