I don't know his lineage but he's in Kanha Zone right now along with Bajrang, Jr. Bajrang, Dev Talai and another unidentified male. He's definitely still a youngster but looks to be on his way to a good sized fella.
@Rage2277 may know more.

His facial marks look similar to Dhamangaon though, id guess his his son or Bajrangs.

The monster Male, T2, father of the Dhamagaon male.
This was either 2015 or 2016 when he was fighting with Munna, chasing him out.
I was told by a guide in Kanha that this male was one of, if not the largest male during his prime.
Sometimes guides get their ID's mixed up, they don't always know which tigers are which but he looks massive and the guide did mention T2 specifically.

Some cheerful news from Panna. P 141 has a litter of 2 cubs who are about 2 and a half months old.

   

P 222 has also littered and given birth to three cubs.

Video clip of T28 aka Star male calling after territorial fight in tourism Zone 2 of Ranthambore. 
This footage was made by me back in 2012. 
At one point, this beast was less than 10m away from my vehicle.

If he was giving out making calls then most likely the fight was over since female who was in the area. Reply

The big cats use their coats as camouflage. Every tiger has a unique set of stripes that can be used to identify it, similar to human fingerprints. mangu of bandhavgarh Reply
