Dear Radha Ji, Dinesh Ji, Thank you so much Radha Ji, Dinesh Ji🙏. Was searching match since your answering post. But could not arrive to conclusion beside many search and comparisons. Please inform few book names which has information of these species in Western Ghats. Do British Flora of India Volume-1 and Volume-2 has this? I have 'Jungle Trees of Central India' which does not have these species information. Please let me spend some more time so that can report morphology as much detail as possible. When you specially mentioned that they are shade loving, i got more interested if they can be grown indoor. Now days only money plants, areca palm other non-indigenous are grown widely as indoor. May be *Strobilanthes* can be replaced with them. Looks very beautiful and soft. Thanks Sharmila
