Mysore/Mysuru: “I never had the experience of guiding any Howdah elephant in Jumboo Savari and I was nervous, but it was Abhimanyu who instilled confidence in me which helped me to be successful in fulfilling my responsibility,” said Abhimanyu’s Mahout Vasanth.
Sharing his experience with Star of Mysore as it was the first time for both Abhimanyu, who carried the Golden Howdah and himself who guided him in Jumboo Savari, Vasanth said that after the Golden Howdah was secured on Abhimanyu’s back, fear gripped him for a few minutes. But recollecting how his father Sannappa had guided the howdah elephant previously, helped him, he added.
