    ‘Where are the Elephants?’ – Prime Video creates intrigue around missing elephants

    Mumbai: Set amidst the lush forests of Kerala and the concrete jungle of Delhi, the Amazon Original series, Poacher is an eye-opening eco-thriller currently streaming on Prime Video. Masterfully crafted by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Richie Mehta, the series is based on true events and unearths the investigation into India’s largest ivory-poaching syndicate in 2015, serving as a poignant reminder of the plight of our majestic elephants.

    Over the weekend, social media buzzed with concern over the sudden disappearance of elephants from the logos of noted brands like The Times of India and the Flying Elephant restaurant at the Park Hyatt, Chennai. What followed was over 30  brands chiming in and joining the conversation, urging consumers to speak up for elephants before they disappear.

    In a bold and unified effort to ignite conversation and raise awareness about poaching, several brands, including Asian Paints, Make My Trip, Dabur, The Bombay Store, Spice Jet, Shaadi.com, Rapido, BoAt and many others, joined forces with Prime Video. Together, they resoundingly amplified the urgent message of Poacher, presenting a united front against the critical threat to these majestic beings.

    While Make My Trip spoke about responsible travelling and how our jungles are sacred and incomplete without elephants, Asian Paints went one step further by sharing an ivory shade card, stating that inspiration can come home in ways other than poaching. Education brand, Unacademy chimed in, sharing that the world and childhood without ‘e for elephant’ are incomplete. Dental brand Toothsi joined the conversation by sharing that elephants’ smiles are worth protecting, just like ours! Dabur Hajmola added that poaching is something the brand could never digest. While Rapido also took a quirky route to condemn poaching, by adding a drop location where one could find Elephants. While BoAt reminded its followers that haathi is our saathi.

    Loved and appreciated by audiences and critics worldwide, Poacher has earned acclaim across the globe for its authenticity and powerful performances. This thrilling crime series, based on true events, delivers a heart-wrenching and captivating narrative with Nimisha Sajayan, Roshan Mathew, and Dibyendu Bhattacharya in pivotal roles. Produced by QC Entertainment in association with Alia Bhatt’s Eternal Sunshine Productions, Suitable Pictures, and Poor Man’s Productions, Poacher primarily unfolds in Malayalam, Hindi, and English. Poacher is streaming on Prime Video in 240 countries and territories in over 35 Indian and foreign languages.

As we eagerly await the upcoming season, here’s a quick recap of all that went down in season one!

    Introduction to a world of magic and destiny

    The season began with the arrival of Moiraine Sedai (Rosamund Pike) and her Warder (magically linked bodyguard) Lan Mandragoran (Daniel Henney) in the peaceful village of Emond’s Field. They’re on a mission to find the Dragon Reborn, a prophesied individual who could either save the world or bring its destruction.

    Trolloc attack and the flight from Emond’s field

    Chaos erupts as Trollocs, monstrous creatures serving the dark one, attack Emond’s dield. Moiraine identifies Rand al’Thor (Josha Stradowski), Mat Cauthon (Barney Harris), Perrin Aybara (Marcus Rutherford), Egwene al’Vere (Madeleine Madden), and Nynaeve al’Meara (Zoë Robins) as individuals connected to the prophecy. The friends, along with the wisdom Nynaeve, flee as Dark friends pursue them. The thrilling chase is what catapults the story forward, engaging the fans in an exciting journey.

    Journey and self-discovery

    The group embarks on a treacherous journey to the city of Baerlon, facing dangers like Whitecloaks and Shadar Logoth. Along the way, Rand channels the One Power, Nynaeve exhibits strong channeling abilities, Mat becomes affected by a cursed dagger, and Perrin grapples with his connection to wolves. Egwene’s potential as an Aes Sedai is hinted at, and brings forth potential mysteries for the characters.

    The group’s journey leads them to the Green Man, guardian of the Eye of the World. He sacrifices himself to protect the Eye from forces of darkness. In a climactic showdown, they confront the Forsaken Aginor and Balthamel. Rand inadvertently channels immense power, and the Forsaken are defeated as the Eye is sealed. Rand’s confession to Egwene about his channeling marks a pivotal moment of vulnerability.

The evening saw 1000 musicians from across the country coming together to perform songs from the series’ album, composed by Pritam. The operatic musical recital served as a prelude, as the country gears up to celebrate its 70th Republic Day.

    Gaurav Gandhi, Director and Country General Manager, Amazon Prime Video India, said, “The Amazon Original Series The Forgotten Army – Azaadi Ke Liye, its music album and this live musical evening is our humble tribute to the Azad Hind Fauj. The show endeavors to bring back to public memory, the long forgotten sacrifice of the brave Indian National Army (INA) soldiers. The LIVE 1000 band features musicians from across the country and brings to live the ethos of The Forgotten Army – a collective for all, bound by their common goal.   We are delighted that the album and this musical event have made its mark in history by creating a coveted Guinness World Record for The Largest Indian Cinematic Music Band.  We are hopeful that our Freedom Anthem – Azaadi, will strike a chord across the country, and serve as tribute to our soldiers – those remembered and cherished and those forgotten.”

Despite their valor, they became a foot-note in India’s Independence history. I vowed to tell their story to India and to the world. On the occasion of India’s 70th Republic day, the release of The Forgotten Army – Azaadi Ke Liye, is my attempt to take their story to the world. The album from the show, today’s musical serenade by the LIVE 1000 band, all capture the very spirit of the Azad Hind Fauj.”
