Once a dream, now on the big screen.

Wild Tamil Nadu - incredibly happy to have been a part of this journey alongside some incredibly talented people. It feels special to see the elephants I’ve spent so much time with on the big screen and reach audience across cities.

In cinemas from tomorrow. by @ganeshraghunathan

To all the elephants who have touched my life — some still here, many gone.

Grateful for every encounter, every memory, and every life that has left a mark on mine.

Thinking especially of T today. I miss you.

The truth about elephants 🐘💔 #elephant #wildlife
International elephant day

An elephant isn't a "Rogue" just because of a headline. 🛑🐘

When an elephant is involved in a conflict, the media is quick to use the word "Rogue." But as elephant expert Anand explains, this label is often given by someone sitting in a city, far from the field.
A single incident doesn't define an elephant’s personality for life. By slapping these tags on wild animals, we justify "taming"—a process that Ganesh describes as "breaking the spirit" of the animal.
True conservation requires empathy and science, not sensationalism. We need to stop managing by headlines and start managing by biology.

Do you think the media should be held more accountable for how they label wild animals in conflict? Let’s discuss below. 👇

Same waters. A fisherman on one bank, elephants on the other. Neither bothered by the other, both just getting on with their morning. by @ganeshraghunathan

#nifwinners #nifcontestlaunch2026

Looking back at this moment from 2020 when my work was recognized in the Wildscape & Animals in Their Habitat category.

Wildlife and conservation have always needed more voices, more eyes, and more stories, and being part of the Nature inFocus community that uses photography to spark awareness for the natural world has been deeply meaningful.

To have had my perspective shared alongside so many talented photographers was truly humbling.

With the 2026 contest launching today, I’m looking forward to seeing the new stories and moments that will be captured this year. If you’ve been thinking about sharing your work, I highly encourage you to join in.

Perks of sitting quiet and waiting.
