Morimus inaequalis
What is this ?? !!!
Most probably a flightless long-horn beetle from the subfamily Lamiinae and tribe Phrissomini. If you have such a tremendous weight to carry, you are not able to run...
@NoamFossi: Almost matches...But black eye like structure is different...It is from South Africa..Regionally less found in India...
I have checked this one before, but spots and markings are different.

@Lauren : I have one more pic of it...I ll post when i reach home....In work now...
But "Cerambycid" beetle is somewhat thin compared to this pic na?
I agree, it is a Cerambycid, the second antennal segment is very small, a characteristic of the family. Do you have more pictures of this beetle? It is really neat.
