I grew up near Polo Forest. Sharing its true heritage story with the world is my life's purpose.

Polo Forest, the biodiverse wonderland which was once an ancient city, a hiding place for rulers, home to many tribes, flora and wildlife has a significant rich legacy. The world needs to know about it. And being native, grown up learning about its history and spending years playing in this forest, it is my duty to do so — I found my purpose.

I'm from Vijaynagar, a town 12 km from Polo Forest. As a kid I used to visit this lush green forest to chill out. One day I saw a group of travellers from England — and the guide was not a native, barely knew about this ancient forest. The information he shared was fabricated. That was the turning point of my life. Now it's been more than a decade I've been researching and spreading knowledge about Polo Forest and its heritage.

A native. A storyteller. A traveller. A dreamer. A purpose.
