Biographer of a Tiger | From Mumbai Newsrooms to Tadoba: Legacy of Tigress Maya | Ft. Anant Sonawane

Welcome to another thrilling episode of #TheCoolKarnis - Today, we are leaving the concrete jungle and heading straight into the Jungle - to the heart of the wild. At the centre of today’s story is a powerful mother. Not just any mother, but the legendary, majestic and global icon of the Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve—the famous tigress, Maya. Imagine writing a biography about a mother who doesn't speak, doesn't give interviews, but whose stride captivated the world. Our guest today did exactly that. Please welcome the author of the Amazon Bestseller, Maya, Anant Sonawane! Anant masterfully merged his professional skill in journalism and communication with his ultimate passion for wildlife conservation. He is an author and Conservation Communicator. His debut book Maya, published by ‪@harpercollins‬ hasn't just hit the stands—it has hit the ball straight out of the park. It is like scoring a century at Lord’s on your maiden test! And why the cricket analogy? Because the foreword to this masterpiece is written by the God of Cricket himself, Bharat Ratna ‪@sachintendulkar‬ . But our podcast today isn't just about tigers. We are transported back to the bustling bylanes of Mumbai's Cotton Mill neighbourhoods in the 70s and 80s. We explore the golden era of the print industry and the boom of television media and Anant’s transition to an author and Conservation Communication. With glowing reviews from Uddhav Thackeray Ji, Raveena Tandon Atul Kulkarni and other celebrities, his book is a 'read-it-at-one-go' experience. And I promise you, this conversation is a 'listen-at-one-go' experience. Before we start… Wishing a Happy Mother’s day to all the Mothers who are the fierce tigress protecting her children, nourishing her children and teaching them essential life skills.
