The Frog was sitting in a Rock . I came to close of it . it didnt went to anywhere by fear. its didnt have any fear when i spotted it . This look so elegant from other frogs thats why i attracted on this frog . After i came to home i tried to find the name of this frog . i used google lens first . but the result was wrong. google lens said that its a Taipa frog ( Rana longicrus ) seen in Taiwan . After my research i concluded that its not a Rana longicrus because this frog is not seen in Kerala . there no way to see a rana longicrus in kerala . Also i got a Help from  a Zoologist Mr. Mufassil , He told me that it maybe the Typical Frog from the family Ranidae . in this hint and the help of inaturalist.org i got the evidences that proving its a Indosylvirana aurantiaca
