The actor tells mid-day that creating an anthem for India's wildlife was a dream she harboured for long. "This would celebrate all that is incredible about our land. I hope that parents and children help take the message of our anthem forward and join us in our effort to keep India, wild forever."
A source from WTI tells mid-day, "The Gaj Yatra is the biggest event planned around India's national heritage animal — the Asian elephant. WTI and Dia are working towards protecting elephant corridors in the country. It's important to note that our ecosystem can still support both human and animal population in the world simultaneously."
