The Tiger King, vowed to kill hundred tigers so as to refute the prediction of royal astrologer. According to the prediction, Tiger King's death would come from the 100th tiger.
By being extremely cruel towards animal, the tiger king started hunting tigers in his kingdom. Very rapidly he killed at around 70 tigers in his kingdom. Once he left his kingdom in danger too by annoying the British Officer.
Soon tigers became extinct in his kingdom. Thereupon, the tiger king decided to marry the princess of that royal kingdom which was tiger prone. After his marriage, he became more geared towards his target. He used to hunt tigers whenever he visited his law.
In this manner, the tiger king succeeded to kill ninety nine tigers. The hunt of 100th tiger was indeed a big deal. As the Diwan took a frail tiger from zoo and left it in the forest where the king was wandering for hunt.
At last, the tiger king shot the 100th tiger but the bullet missed it's target and tiger fell down in shock. The tiger king was in misunderstanding that he completed his target to hunt 100 tigers.
