He started doing the same as he had seen wild animals in his childhood. His physical and mental abilities were also like those of animals. It was from him that Kipling got the idea of Mowgli. Disney later adapted the book into a cartoon film, which was loved all over the world. Sanichar was sent to an orphanage in Agra but did not become physically strong for the rest of his life.
