Production[edit]
In September, 2016, it was announced that Jammwal will star as a veterinary doctor in Rohan Sippy's film titled Junglee which will "mirror a unique friendship between man and an animal."[7] Sippy said that the idea of the film came to him after seeing the 1971 film Haathi Mere Saathi.[7] However, the film later went to American director Chuck Russell, who is known for directing The Mask (1994), Eraser (1996) and The Scorpion King (2002).[8]
To prepare for the role, Jammwal learned Animal flow style of combat and Kalaripayattu.[9][10] While talking about his first experience directing an Indian film, Russell said that he wanted to make a film "that is true to India, but uses the music, dance and the wonderful artists in Bollywood to tell a universal story about returning to the natural world".[11] The principal photography of the film began on 5 December, 2017 and was finished in the summer of 2018.[8][12] Out of 100, four elephants were selected for the film after scouting in India and Sri Lanka.[13] Junglee was shot in Thailand.[14] The scenes involving elephants were shot in the presence of Thai crew members.[13] Jammwal performed several stunts himself.[15]
