The singer teams up with Sanctuary India to spread the message of saving tigers in India through a video

SINGER Gary Lawyer is in the thick of action. He is not only playing himself in Sooni Taraporevala’s Little Zizou (which stars John Abraham and Boman Irani in lead roles), but has also teamed up with Sanctuary India to make a video with a message of saving tigers in India. Gary reveals that the video has been made on the last song of his new album and that the sale proceeds of the record will go to the Indian Wildlife Conservation Trust.

 

“I really felt from within to do something for tigers. In my album I have a song Save the Tiger to tell people how tigers are fast approaching extinction.

 

“After I recorded the song, I got the idea that I should make a video too. I’m being tremendously helped by Sanctuary India to find footage of tigers which is very rare. I will give away the sale proceeds to the Indian Wildlife Conservation Trust.”

 

He adds, “As of now, we religiously want to publicise this video to sensitise people about tigers and the problems they are facing and in turn what ecological problems we will face.”

 

As for his stint in Little Zizou, Gary (who plays Boman’s best friend in the movie) says, “I play myself in the film and I have also sung in it. I’m a Parsi and I have known Sooni for a long time now. Being a biker myself, I had known John too when he had taken up biking. So, it was a very nice experience to shoot with people I’m fond of.”
