Shivendra is currently working on a project for leading Natural History Channels. He says: “My love for the nature and animals attracted me to go for Natural History. Someone has to be the voice of the voiceless so I decided to click them, their life, behaviour, how they live in the wild, what they eat, how they survive. I want to photograph and film each and every aspect of their life.”

Shivendra wants to showcase the biodiversity of Incredible India and its marvelous wild areas – “there is a lot to explore in Indian Forests”. So far he has been to Kabini (Nagarhole National Park), Bharatpur (Keoladeo Ghana National Park), Sattal (Uttarakhand), Jaipur (Jhalana National Park), Amboli Rainforests (Maharashtra), Outskirts of Nashik, Ziro (Arunachal Pradesh), Kalatop National Park (Himachal Pradesh), Rao Jodha Desert Rock Park ( Jodhpur) and many more.
