Dear Mowgli, wherever you are, my thoughts and this codswallop I’m about to write shall always be with you. You were grossly underrated. For someone who fought Sher Khan — who most might not know was actually a British agent in disguise — on his own thus accelerating our freedom struggle, you don’t even have a proper citation in our history books. If somebody as vague as Buddha or a Jesus (both of whom never wrote a single memorable word in their entire life) can get elaborately detailed, then our little hero deserves a far better treatment. Here’s a guy who grew up amongst the wildest of animals, spoke their language fluently, adapted their way of life, left close friends like Baloo and Bagheera for that
