Tiger Baby founders Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti have also spoken about the documentarys journey and its upcoming release on Animal Planet. Zoya Akhtar says, Satish Bhaskars is one of those extraordinary stories that deserves to be told widely. Animal Planet has long been a home for stories about our natural world, and we are so glad Turtle Walker has found a place in India: Epic Wild Stories. Reema Kagti adds, What stays with you about Satishs journey is how much one person can do simply by caring deeply and refusing to give up. After seeing his story connect with audiences around the world, it feels special to now have it reach a wider audience back home through Animal Planet. Director Taira Malaney also expressed her thoughts on the documentary becoming part of the anthology. She said, Im incredibly happy that Turtle Walker is part of India: Epic Wild Stories. While Satishs story is full of wonder, adventure and discovery, it has shown me that meaningful change doesnt always begin with grand gestures. Sometimes, it starts with one person who cares deeply and simply does not give up. We have been overwhelmed by the response to the film thus far, and I cannot wait for audiences across India to see it. The documentary began as an independent production with a small crew based in Goa and developed over eight years into an international co-production involving partners from India and overseas. Turtle Walker had its world premiere at DOC NYC in New York, where both screenings were sold out. It has since been screened at more than 75 film festivals worldwide and received over 20 awards, including the Grand Teton Award and Conservation Award at the 2024 Jackson Wild Media Awards. Since January 2026, the film has also been part of a screening tour across India.
