Pelargopsis capensis
A tree kingfisher
Widely but sparsely distributed in tropical south Asia from India and Sri Lanka to Indonesia. The call of this noisy kingfisher is a low and far reaching peer-por-por repeated every 5 seconds or so as well cackling ke-ke-ke-ke-ke-ke. Very distinct, you will surely know it when it's around.
This was a view-out my window :)

Looks like a Kingfisher.
Hi Fulmani, when you have a spare minute, could you set the location where you took the photographs.
