About
Why I Film Wildlife
Wildlife’s been my world since I was a kid, especially snakes. My dad was a rescuer, so I started young - rescuing snakes at 8. For me, making films is about connecting people to animals most folks avoid or fear. I want to show their gentle, not-so-scary side.
My Style & What You Get
I’m not here for just pretty shots. I want to tell a real story - the drama of a python egg hatching in the rain, the struggle of a bird tangled in manja (kite string). My films aim to shift how people see wildlife, spark new respect, and drop some knowledge.
I like to include behind-the-scenes peeks - you’ll see the long nights, soaked clothes, mosquito bites, all the real stuff it takes for that one perfect shot.
What We Can Make Together
- Short documentaries on Indian wildlife, from why snakes show up in Mumbai to the secret lives of frogs.
- Social media wildlife education clips - busting myths, quick tips on animal rescue, the wild side of city life.
- Conservation awareness videos for campaigns, showing the risks birds face during Sankranti or why grasslands matter for everyone.
My Comfort Zone
Snakes, frogs, chameleons - reptiles are my thing. I’ve spent hours with flamingos, sarus cranes, langurs, and chinkaras too. Even the tiny stuff - butterflies, scorpions, crabs along Mumbai’s coast - I love it all.
How I Work
I shoot in the field, rain or shine, with pro gear. I know how to get close without stressing animals - ethical wildlife filming always. Mumbai is home, but I travel all over India for projects.
Ethics Matter
As a rescuer, animal welfare comes first. I never disturb or set up shots at their expense. We’re just visitors in their world.
