Translating the conventional methods to produce novel materials with intriguing properties is much needed in current scenario. It was well established that particles nanoscale exhibit superior activity than their bulk counterpart. Recently, biogenic synthesis has gained extensive attention for synthesizing a wide range of nanomaterials including metal/metal oxides, hybrid, and bioinspired nano-materials, respectively. In this context, we have summarized reviewed fundamental mechanisms strategies, especially non-metal, metal, metal oxide nanoparticles using four different natural sources Curcuma viz. amada, caesia, longa, zedoaria, conclusion, content presented article will provide ready-to-use information future improvements value addition related nanoparticle production through green approach species as discussed. Finally, these were also found be more reliable, sustainable, eco-friendly per protocols.
