Strange things happen every day. Like, can you imagine a really sad picture of an elephant calf on fire wins an award? Well yes, this does happen in our world. The reason we are discussing this is because the said picture has shaken up Bollywood. In the picture, we see an elephant and its calf fleeing from an angry mob of people and sadly the calf is set ablaze. And this particular picture has bagged the wildlife photography award for this year by the Sanctuary Asia wildlife magazine. How disturbing can it get?
