A baby white elephant played a prominent role in the 1966 movie ‘Maya’ with Jay North and Sajid Khan. It’s just the first thing I thought of when I saw a white elephant.
That’s what it was all about. Indian maharajas, instead of going to war against an adversary would instead give a beautiful white elephant. Such a magnificent creature would deserve to be clothed and bejeweled in the finest. Taking care of it would bankrupt the country and they would have no money for defense. The giver of the “gift” would just march in and take over without firing a shot or throwing a spear.

At least they’re actually talking about the elephant in the room.
