Discovery India’s production Jawai: India’s Leopard Hills has won the Best Natural History / Wildlife Programme at the prestigious Asian Television Academy Awards 2016, held in Singapore.
Produced by Robin Roy Films, Jawai: India’s Leopard Hills combines state-of-the-art technology and sophisticated techniques to show leopards’ behaviour like never before.
“This recognition reflects Discovery’s ingenious and differentiated approach to connect and entertain the discerning Indian viewer. The programme captures rarely-seen-before behaviour of the leopards and urges audience to rethink about the future of these dangerous yet vulnerable species,” said Discovery Networks Asia-Pacific South Asia vice president - real world products Sameer Rao.
The one-hour programme documents the astonishing story of the co-existence of nature’s two different creations – leopards and human beings. Situated in the heart of Rajasthan's untrammeled wilderness is Jawai, a land shaped by lava that bubbled to the surface millions of years ago. But that’s not what makes this place special. The granite hills surrounding human settlements have been claimed by the wild leopards and these leopards are living with the humans for years in perfect harmony.
Asian Television Awards is the Asian TV industry’s most significant and celebrated event, recognising excellence in programming, production and performance. Determined by an expert panel of over 60 judges from across the region, the awards uphold a prestigious reputation of showcasing quality television production.
