About Wildlife Videography & Filmmaking
Why I Do This
Ek din just, I picked up my camera to figure out birding kya hota hai (what birding is about). Since then, wildlife videography has become my escape and therapy. Honestly, bahut zyada achha stress buster hai (it's a really good stress buster). The wild makes me feel alive, and I want to share that feeling.
What I Bring to the Screen
I aim to turn raw moments into stories that connect you with nature. Whether you’re after cinematic wildlife clips for Insta or a documentary short, I try to capture the real stuff - beauty, struggle, joy.
- Short-form wildlife mixtapes: Snappy, moody videos for social, using slow-mo and speed ramping.
- Documentary shorts: Dive deeper into bird behavior videography or species stories.
- On-field vlogs: See the mud, the chase, and those early morning shoots - the reality behind the perfect shot.
My Experience
My biggest passion is birds. From flamingos in Navi Mumbai wetlands to rare Oriental Dwarf Kingfishers, I’ve spent hours filming birds, eagles, hornbills, and more. I cover mammals too - Asiatic Lions in Gir, primates, reptiles.
I mostly shoot in Navi Mumbai and across India’s wild places. Showing off the city’s hidden wildlife is a big part of my mission.
The Real Side
Wildlife filmmaking is all about patience and ethics. Patience sikhaya birding ne (birding taught me patience). I don’t disturb animals or mess with their habitats. For me, conservation storytelling matters as much as the perfect shot.

My Story
People call me a wildlife photographer, but honestly, I’m just a guy with a regular job and a camera. Ek din, bas mazaak mazaak mein Nikon lens hire kiya (One day, just for fun, I hired a Nikon lens). Birding ka nasha lag gaya, yaar. That first viewfinder moment—total silence, just me and the bird. Pure meditation. Patience sikhaya birding ne. Now, I wake up before sunrise, crawl in mud, skip meals, all for that one shot. It’s not glamorous, but it’s my therapy, my purpose.
My Work
Wildlife & Bird Photography - I shoot birds, lions, and more in their wild homes. Urban wildlife photography and documentary-style wildlife videos are my thing.
Story Behind Every Frame - Every photo has a struggle—like crawling 50 meters for a Tawny Eagle. The mood, the atmosphere, that’s what I chase.
My Favourite Spots - Mostly roaming Navi Mumbai’s wetlands, Gir’s lions, or searching in the Thar desert wildlife. Each place has its own magic.
Photography with a Purpose - I use conservation photography to show the beauty and threats to places like flamingo-filled wetlands. My photos speak for protection.
