05 / Photography
Photography
As someone deeply inspired by nature and wildlife, photography is how I capture the beauty of the natural world. It allows me to slow down, observe animal behavior, and look at my surroundings with a creative, intentional eye.
The Masai Mara Expedition: Tracked and photographed Africa’s iconic wildlife across the vast golden savannahs of Kenya.
Focus Areas: Capturing the raw dynamics of the “Big Five,” the intense focus of big cats on the hunt, and dramatic environmental silhouettes against African sunsets.
Other Focus Areas: Indian wildlife, natural landscapes, and outdoor wilderness environments across Rajaji National Park, Jim Corbett National Park, Kanha National Park, Sariska National Park, Ranthambore National Park, and Bandhavgarh National Park.
My Approach: Wildlife photography isn’t just about pressing the shutter; it’s about waiting patiently for the perfect composition and respecting the animal’s natural habitat.
The Masai Mara, Rajaji National Park, Jim Corbett National Park, Kanha National Park, Sariska National Park, Ranthambore National Park, and Bandhavgarh National Park taught me that patience creates more powerful images than any expensive lens. When you understand animal behavior, you’re already composing the shot before it happens.
06 / Wilderness, Leadership & Community
Wilderness, Leadership & Community
Nature is my classroom, and the outdoors is where I test my limits and learn the value of community. My experiences in the wild have shaped my resilience and sense of responsibility.
INME Tons Camp, Himachal Pradesh (2024 – 2026): Immersed myself in high-energy adventure and leadership building for 3 summers on school and personal expeditions.
Adventure: Tackled challenging terrains and rivers through river rafting, expedition cycling, and intense outdoor tactical games.
Community Impact (CSR): Spent time working with a village community close to the Tons camp, conducting teaching sessions and educational activities for underprivileged local children.
07 / Golf
Golf
Where table tennis is about explosive speed, golf is about patience, precision, and mental endurance. It is my favorite way to stay connected to the outdoors while challenging myself.
The Appeal: Managing the course, reading the wind, and mastering the mechanics of a perfect swing.
Takeaway: It’s a game played against yourself, teaching me how to stay calm under pressure and reset after a tough shot.
