Then the tiger attacked him from behind. He hit Dilu on the head with his paw and started trying to drag him into the dense forest. Dilu’s wife Namita also went with him and she was on the boat. As soon as she saw that the tiger had attacked her husband, she fought with the tiger to save her husband without caring for her life. He started hitting the tiger’s neck with the stick. In this sequence, the back ribs of the tiger were severely hurt and it was stunned. Frightened by Namita’s continuous attacks, the tiger ran away from there.
