Hi Jitin!
Boy do I know the feeling of getting those elusive lightning strikes. This is a fantastic capture!
However (always a ‘however’, right?) the bright streetlight on the lower right (and the lower left) is drawing my eye even more if that’s possible. Maybe see if you can clone that out, or replace it with a previous shot where it’s not so strong?
Also, try and straighten the building out on the right too. I know there are ways of ‘stretching’ the image in Photoshop to make the buildings more upright.
But this lightning is awesome. After you get used to shooting lighting, you’ll know to try and find a compelling composition rather then just the lightning, which you seem to have done here. Mine are in a flat field and hold no other interest than the lightning. Well done!
