Kharanta Tiger by Hugh Allen | Adventure Audiobook | Audiostory

Replete with mystery and intrigue, the excellent story of the "Kharanta (Kharnta) Tiger" has been selected from Hugh Allen's wonderful book, The Lonely Tiger (1959).
Allen's writings are characterized by thrilling and compelling storytelling which are laced with polished prose of such precision and economy that is matched by few in this genre.
After a head wound received on the field of battle during WWII in 1942, leaves him out of active duty military service, Allen is hospitalized in India. Over time, he developed a fondness for the country and bought a huge estate in the Mandikhera village of Pipariya district, Madhya Pradesh in central India, where he lived for more than two decades.
With his sister Babs, he farmed the estate and settled down to a quiet, peaceful, and idyllic life. In between his farm work, he would find time for his nature walks in the forests surrounding his estate, where he would frequently encounter injured, wounded, or rogue animals. With his conscience clear, he would then give full reign to the hunting instinct and go after them to protect his farm and livestock.

Apologies for the long wait! The uploads should commence again at a more or less regular frequency. Heartfelt thank you to all for your interest and engagement!

[@Sandbarfight]

Thank you

[@ewanbaxter9199]

No one can tell them like you do, very enjoyable. Thank you for your efforts to post these stories.

[@paulreilly3904]

Glad to have you back.

[@lgalardi]

You bring a real voice and a real passion to these amazing tales. So many others are using AI or similar computer generated voices and it is painful to listen to. Thank you many times over for sharing your splendid talents with all of us!

[@mrhusaynful]

Welcome back, waited for very long.

[@DylanE10RC]

Thank God. I’ve been listening to replays daily and almost messaged you yesterday to see if everything was okay. Welcome back (and THANK YOU), dude!

[@selvalore]

My pleasure Dylan and thanks so much for your comment!

[@ellisonodneal]

I agree. Really love his narratives. Thank you so much, you are appreciated.

[@lgalardi]

Yay!!! You are back

[@selvalore]

Appreciate the support and gesture Luke!

[@lgalardi]

This is a mere pittance in relationship to the happiness your narrations bring. Thank you

[@YvetteArby]

Thank you for supporting him! I love these stories and I wish that I had the money to donate. So thank you for your generous donation!! ✌🏼💖

[@lgalardi]

@@YvetteArby it is my pleasure, thank you so much. Don't you love the narration, the inflection that he adds as he reads these amazing tales? You just don't get that from these bot voices so many other channels use

[@paulreilly3904]

​@@lgalardiyes you are absolutely right. Everything is right about Mr Singh's voice and his narration is the amongst the very very best.

[@selvalore]

Well thats nice and thank you as always!

[@alanrabinowitz7111]

What a pleasant surprise this Friday morning, good to see you back. I have to say this is a good choice of a story. Hugh Allen's stories are touching. Nostalgia tinged with sadness.

[@selvalore]

Very true, Thank you Alan!

[@latu8923]

Thanks for sharing brother. I know you're a busy man, but we greatly appreciate you taking the time to edit and upload these videos-that's a lot of work. Thanks again brother.

My pleasure and thank you for commenting again!

[@pudding7074]

I’m so excited that I can’t even listen yet! Going to keep this one on the shelf for a wee while like a fine wine and keep listening to those previous! I know each of these stories inside out, thank you 🙏🏻

[@selvalore]

That's nice and thank you for saying that!

[@manjarin3990]

Wow Apratim!, I've been eagerly waiting for this one, and it was worth every moment of the 5-month wait! Your dedication to sharing these incredible jungle tales is truly admirable. Your storytelling brings the jungle alive, and it's evident how much effort and passion you put into each episode. Please, keep fueling our passion for the wild with your incredible content.We're with you every step of the way, eagerly awaiting the next chapter in your jungle adventures! You bring joy and peace to many. Thank You from each one of us🌺👏😁

[@selvalore]

Cheers Manjari! Thank you for taking the time to write that. I appreciate it very much.

[@Ashtonpartin]

AVS great presentation once again. Btw can u do some stories from 'Tigerro' by Sasha/Sacha Siemel. He hunted Jaguars in South America during early twentieth century.

[@selvalore]

Yes of course, I will look into that title. Thank you for the suggestion!

[@hockeytownluv2012]

Thanks! I just love your readings Guruji

[@selvalore]

Continued appreciation for all your comments and support!

[@internationalplayboy8685]

Good things come to those who wait. I got my reward today with this story!

[@selvalore]

Yes, that's what they say. Well thank you for listening!

Amazing work brother thank you for all you do.

[@selvalore]

Thank you Charlie! I appreciate all your comments.

Thanks Paul and appreciate all your messages earlier! Hope all is well

This time kids can also join ... listening to the story and dozing off... The narration got real class and drama.

Its raining and windy, I've got the electric fireplace on and a new Selvalore story. Life is very good.

[@selvalore]

Thank you Mr. Russell! Always love reading your unique remarks.

[@cosmiccharlie8294]

You want your ashes in the river, not deposited by a squatting tiger!

[@dharmrajsinghchauhan4997]

Eagerly anticipated and much awaited by all. Another wholesome audiostory. Thank you bro 😊

[@selvalore]

Much appreciated brother and thanks!

[@dkcorderoyximenez3382]

Delighted to discover a new story read by you Mr. Singh...I've been listening to your older readings to the point of actually being able to pronounce the names of some of the villages featured in other stories...since I was raised with a heavy New York accent, I consider this a great personal achievement...haha... Another great story Sir...🙏

[@selvalore]

Well, this is a first haha. I've never had anyone aspire to want to pronounce the village names correctly. Not sure if Im doing it the right way either. That's great to hear nonetheless. An Indian village name said with a New Yorker's accent would be something. As always appreciate your comment!

[@Shwetank_Raj]

Thank you bro for this. The long wait was worthwhile.

[@selvalore]

So nice to see your name in the comments again. Thank you Shwetank!

[@Nature_is_metal]

Thank you. I can sleep today. Have been sleep deprived for months.

[@OddityInsightswithPearl]

Such a pleasant surprise to get a notification after months for yet another audiobook treat from your channel! Superb narration as always. Thank you for this upload.

[@selvalore]

Happy to hear that! Thank you for commenting.

[@Kdk058]

I am a lifelong listener of audiobooks. I have listened to literally hundreds of different narrators and I have to say you are one of the best out there! I would definitely look Into pursuing this full time if you aren't already!

[@selvalore]

Thank you for the kind words! Your comment is much appreciated.

[@chesterwortham5525]

I wonder if Jim Colbert would have figured out that about the thorn I. The tigers pad

[@selvalore]

He probably would have too. The expert that he was in reading jungle signs! Thank you! Always great to see you in the comments

[@neelsmuller3716]

Your back after 5 months, how we have waited!!, no better voice for these stories……. Thank you very much! I love sitting in my garage , reloading my rifle ammunition , drinking coffee and listen to you!

[@selvalore]

Amazing! Great to hear from you Mr. Muller and hope things are well in South Africa

[@selvalore]

Yeah thats KZbin for you! So glad you finally got around to listening to this though

[@sivav7888]

Why is the channel named Selva? Someone from TN..just curious Singh sir

[@selvalore]

Haha! Selva is spanish for Jungle! The name is an ode to Mr. Corbett's book.

[@peterblack1538]

Fantastic, my old friend, Mr Singh is back. A remarkable story and thank you for sharing Sir.

[@selvalore]

So good to hear from you Mr. Black! Hope all's well.

Thank you for these great stories 😊

[@amolmehlawat8197]

Can anyone please tell what all the books I can buy which are tales of man-eaters and from where? I already have Jim and Anderson collection.

[@selvalore]

If its stories about "maneaters" specifically, the only other book currently in print besides Corbett and Anderson would be JH Patterson's Man eaters of Tsavo. Highly recommended!

[@edsmart5801]

So glad to hear from you again! Thank you for the new installment! Please keep on with your amazing stories!
