Passengers and crew of an Indigo flight recently gave a warm welcome to Bomman and Bellie, the main subjects of the Oscar-winning documentary The Elephant Whisperers, on a flight to Ooty. The pilot announced their presence on board and the passengers cheered and clapped in appreciation of their story. The couple had recently travelled to Mumbai for a press conference and were reunited with the film’s production team. They also talked about their pride in being able to share their story with the world, and the responsibility they feel towards caring for orphaned elephant calves. The Elephant Whisperers, directed by Kartiki Gonsalves and backed by Guneet Monga, is available to watch on Netflix.
