Salil Fernandez, a man behind a documentary ‘Boo-boo & Cuddly Poo’ documentary, digging crime and thriller horror as a filmmaker, but locking pushes him to put Whodunnits in the backburner and instead focus on the more real horror he handles every day.
Known as ‘Dogwala’ in the circle of family and friends, the documentary maker grew in the household of Pet Lovers and began to help deviate in what he thought was ‘cushy’ by raising funds to help.
“It was only in 2013 that I began to get more involved at the grassroots level.
Finally, people call me whenever animals need help.
I will take care of the animal and then adopt instead of putting it on the street again.
I soon realized that I found great satisfaction In doing that, “he shared.
During the kuncian, Salil also began to feed stray, and now consider them as a pet.
However, this raises several eyebrows.
“The friends concerned call me and told me to be careful about touching animals during Covid time.
I don’t know to tell these people who are highly educated but not informed,” he ruaja, shows that this is an animal conflict What he tried to handle in his film.
“There are people who come all the weapons that are burning to you when you feed stray, claiming that the more you feed, the more will gather, and pollute the area.
People forget that they don’t have streets and sidewalks, and that deviate Has the right to land too, “Smoke Salil.

As a crime and horror-thriller writer, he said he was surprised by this behavior.

It is a sociopath behavior; the FBI classifies this as a chain killer behavior.
But here, people get away with Scot-free,” he sighed, added that he hoped the documentary film will go beyond the film to be a movement.
“What I really expected to be achieved with this documentary was an amendment to the prevention of atrocities against the animal law, 1960.
I felt it was absurd that the law collected only Rs 50 fine on cruelty actions against animals.
These frustrated people are harmful Animals are those who are able to harm their loved ones too.
If my film helps get an animal welfare bill above the finishing line, it will be a greater achievement than whatever award I’ve won, “confirms Salil, who also managed to bind in Some voices of celebrities for films, including Shraddha Kapoor and Jim Sarbh.
In addition to the larger causes, filmmakers also want to be sensitive to people with the fate of wild animals.
“More than ‘adopting, don’t shop’, the film recommends the cause of community adoption.
If every society or building can adopt this free roaming pet and divide the costs between themselves, these animals will be taken care of.

Even though the film is 2 hours – 45 minutes, Salil has departed to make it only 15 minutes away.
“It should only be a 2-3 day project but continue to grow, and I let it go.
I realized it must be a comprehensive approach.
Animal lovers will clearly watch it but I want everyone to watch it.
I like the format of ‘Saturday Night Live’, so, I adapt To fit my documentary.
It is unique and pleasant but in conditions do not have diluted messages, “the filmmaker promises.
Ask him what inspired a unique name and he explained, “Boo Boo is a cat and Cuddly Poo is a dog – they are animated characters in the film and are named after my own pet.
The idea is to see people look stray around them as this cute creature And referring to them in the same way, with the requirements of the dear ones used by girlfriends for each other – instead of ‘kutta’ or ‘billi’.
that they feel loving to them “.
