Amoghavarsha JS:Wild Karnataka is a 2019 Indian ultra-HD natural history documentary on the Indian state of Karnataka's rich biodiversity, most of which is still unknown to the general public. This was only possible with the unprecedented support and partnership with the Karnataka Forest Department. It’s the story of Indian wildlife and landscapes ...
AJS: From otters chasing tigers to an Indian leopard hunting, dancing frogs to drone footage of elephants and tigers – the movie is a visual treat as it unfolds.

AJS: The film is yet to be taken to film festivals. But the reviews from across the world have been excellent. We were even showcased at MIPCOM event in Cannes, by our distribution partner ITV global.
AJS: The film is story driven, in a documentary format. The subjects include tigers and elephants, along with lesser-known species like the Lion-tailed Macaque, Hornbills, amphibians and reptiles.
AJS: We had a group of 15 camera people on the team, each did specialised sequences. While some filmed in the dry belts, others worked in the Western Ghats area. The film was produced in collaboration with the Karnataka forest department. Kalyan and myself worked with Icon films and Mudskipper as coproduction partners
