[5] The film starts with Yuvraj (or 'Yuvi', for short) saying that he lost his father, Sultan, in the morning but doesn't want to lose his home at any cost.

Bajrangi, his "army" of two monkeys, Hawa Hawaai, Bagga, and Yuvi, go and kidnap the parrot and convince him to go to Delhi with them to talk to the parliament and save their land.

The animals consult a doctor who prescribes some ayurvedic medicines to recover Alex's voice, claiming that he has hypertension, stress, and high blood pressure.

Begum tells that no one is going to Delhi after listening to a tiger's story of how he only survived death at a human's hands by being a coward and forsaking his old ways; thankfully, following a pep talk and seeing Sultan's spirit and Yuvi, who inspires them, Begum changes her mind and, with renewed hope, proceeds to Delhi.

In the last scene, it is shown the jungle is saved courtesy of a shared land act (with the area being called the "Sanjay Gandhi National Park-Borivali") and all are happy and settled.

The film ends with all animals settled in the jungle, with Yuvi seeing his father's spirit and Begum happy.

Delhi Safari had its world premiere at Annecy International Animation Film Festival in June 2012.

[8] Times of India gave Delhi Safari 3 stars, writing ″With satire, spoof, humour and wit, director, Nikhil Advani has highlighted the ongoing aadmi v/s animal battle, the desperate need for preservation of wildlife and the downside of deforestation.

His creatures entertain and tell the story in true Bollywood style (too many songs and too much drama ‘foxes’ the plot).

The 3D effects are striking in parts and amongst the best we’ve seen in India, but few scenes are déjà vu ‘Lion King’.
