"Tigers teach us so many attributes that are applicable towards shaping our personalities, and I often take inspiration for their agility and fierceness in several aspects of my life. As part of this initiative, I tried to depict and imbibe the nature, kindness and ferocity of the beast through Kalaripayattu," Jammwal said. "Saving the tiger population is certainly the need of the hour - its survival and presence play a crucial role in the sustenance, balance and well-being of the ecosystem. It is our duty to conserve their habitat and help increase the number of wild tigers in any way we can. I feel honoured to be associated with Animal Planet to promote such an important cause," he added. Vidyut Jammwal’s Vision for Indian Action Cinema Worldwide Is to Present Kalaripayattu On-Screen
