After returning from Europe he found himself to be rather more serious about his art practice than ever before.

In 2005, Sandesh went to Ellora to live and study there and he bears a great impact of it in his work. He experiments in his work through the colour, texture and peace which drifts through the carved stones as an energy.
In 2006-07, Sandesh was selected for research grant by National Lalit Kala Akademi Delhi at Lalit Kala Akademi, Chennai. With guidance of eminent artist
R M Palaniappan, Sandesh practiced there for two years and that helped him to enhance his thoughts towards his own conception about his practice.
