Rikki-Tikki-Tavi (Russian: Рикки-Тикки-Тави) is a 1975 Soviet-Indian family film directed by Nana Kldiashvili and Aleksandr Zguridi.[1] [2] [3]
The film takes place in the jungle of India. A forester Robert Lawson lives there, and his son Teddy walks, swims, and watches various animals with his boy John. Suddenly a thunderstorm begins and the boys are hiding near the shore. Before their eyes, the rapid current carries away animals, including the mongoose, which Teddy rushed to save.[4]
