Hi Srikumar,
a real beauty, your butterfly and your shot, even if it would be better to have some light an the critter.
As for an ID, I come up with a male Hypolimnas misippus but you have to check that out.
Thanks for posting! Greetings, Dietrich

Hello Srikumar,
definitely a very nicely composed image, presenting that conspicuous butterfly on blossoms in an elegant pose from a well chosen low point of view under pleasantly soft light in front of a perfectly supporting smooth Background.
Thank you! With best regards,
Peter
