IN THE BELLY OF A TIGER IN THE BELLY OF A TIGER JATLA SIDDARTHA

An elderly couple have to decide on one single night, who among them would go into the forest and get killed by the tiger so that their family can survive on the government compensation they get.

ಒಂದು ರಾತ್ರಿ, ವೃದ್ಧ ದಂಪತಿಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ದಟ್ಟ ಕಾಡಿಗೆ ಹೋಗಿ ಹುಲಿಯ ಬಾಯಿಗೆ ಸಿಲುಕಿ ಸಾಯುವವರಾರು ಎಂಬುದನ್ನು ಅವರಿಬ್ಬರಲ್ಲಿ ಒಬ್ಬರು ತೀರ್ಮಾನಿಸುವ ಸಮಯ ಬಂದಿದೆ. ಹೀಗೆ ಹುಲಿ ದಾಳಿಯಿಂದ ಸತ್ತ ವ್ಯಕ್ತಿಯ ಕುಟುಂಬಕ್ಕೆ ಸರ್ಕಾರ ನೀಡುವ ಪರಿಹಾರದ ಹಣದಿಂದ ಕುಟುಂಬ ಸಾಗಬಹುದಾಗಿ ಈ ನಿರ್ಧಾರ ತೆಗೆದುಕೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕಾಗಿದೆ.
