Cant make out properly, but this is Catasetum. could be a hybrid, but I need to check proper image of single flower and whole plant.

Thanks Nidhan Ji.
Orchid is beautiful, but my pictures are not up to the mark in many posts.
It is really difficult to spend more time in a couple of trips.
I tried to do my best.
Regards,
Aarti

Pankaj Ji,  
After a lot of searching, I could find a picture exactly matching with my pictures. It says Catasetum fimbriatum.
But when I click on that picture, a slightly different picture opens. It says from Atlanta Botanical Garden. 
Are the flowers variable?
Regards,
Aarti

Looks like it, but there are so many hybrids that its hard to tell.
Thanks.
Pankaj
