Hello Shreyas: I came across your video in a Whatsapp group. Absolutely delighted to see the places Anderson wrote about. I have been a great fan of his stories since I was a kid- a long time ago and have read all his stories. My younger son is a fan too. Your narration and photography make the stories come alive many decades later. Great effort. Now looking forward to seeing all of the videos=vlogs.

Please cover story of hermit of devarayandurga hills. Also you can cover stories of tigers in existence there which were reported till 2008.
Thanks for taking us along the path treaded by KA. Absolutely mesmerising landscape and the eerie feeling is so full. Feels like this area still harbors, Ellies and big cats. Please keep posting.

Your sketches are kind of good, but there is one sketched where there are two male locals with hats on they don’t look like locals at all. They look more like some women from elsewhere their rounded figure and that’s not right.
