Yeah it is probably a Jungle Babbler, sorry :)

Jungle Babbler is closest I can find, pronounced brow line, pale eye, orangish bill, uniform greyish brown. It's possible that it's a Striated Babbler and we just can't see the lines due to the slight loss of focus.

I think it is an Indian Myna, because it has that brown part on the front of it's chest
