“It all begins with the idea to find silence and serenity in myself when I spend time in nature and feel its authenticity. For me, it is not only about getting the perfect picture of an animal or a bird, but more about capturing the uniquely intense mood or feeling that I only experience in wild nature.”
I also speak at events like the TEDx Hyderabad event in 2024 at IIT Hyderabad. My talks usually revolve around photography, my journey as a photographer and anecdotes from the field which have taught me valuable life lessons.

Striped Hyena
The Near Threatened Striped Hyena is the only hyena species found in India. Hyenas in India inhabit a diversity of habitats, from dry open scrub to deciduous forests and agriculture fields. Although they can hunt down prey, hyenas are generally scavengers, feeding on domestic and wild carrion. Their global population is estimated to be under 10,000 mature individuals and steadily reducing because of deliberate and incidental persecution along with a decrease in its prey base.

The Sound of Water - Bansilalpet Stepwell
The Bansilalpet Stepwell (Naganah Kunta) is a six-level baoli or stepwell in close proximity to the centuries old Hussain Sagar Lake. Much of its history has disappeared with the passage of time but its architectural features stylistically date it to over 300 years old. The Pharaoh & Co. mentions the well as Naganah Kunta in their 1954 map of Secunderabad as part of a garden of tamarind and palmyra trees during the British period. Later, in the 1930’s, a Britisher - T.H. Keyes - developed the area and the project was funded by local businessman Seth Bansilal, after whom the stepwell came to be known.
This is the first chapter in finding the Stepwells of the Deccan series in collaboration with the Rainwater Project.
