Pradip Krishen is a home-grown expert on trees. Insightful and sensitive to cultural influences, Krishen breathes life into botanical knowledge. His popular book, Trees of Delhi, is perhaps the only one of its kind on green cover in an Indian city.
A filmmaker, Krishen, now 70, began researching trees when he hit a lean patch in filmmaking. Literally, he saw from the window of his beautiful house in Chanakyapuri a tree which had always been there but whose name he didn’t know.
From then to now has been a memorable journey, which has taken Krishen. . .
