A plus point is the beautiful cinematography in this adventure film, although some scenes would no longer be acceptable today given certain scenes involving animals. Not that it is extremely brutal, but you can definitely tell that real animals are involved. I saw the film years ago in my childhood, and the final scene is still vividly etched in my memory: the mother elephant who wants to save her calf from two tigers.. Another plus point is the beautiful locations in India. The story itself is simply an adventure revolving around a boy who is disillusioned with his father and flees into the jungle, where he is fortunately taken in by a pilgrim boy on his way to a temple with his elephant and her calf. 6/10
