Hi Sandesh,
Yes, if you want to lose weight increase your cardio.
I'm a newbie on this group, but have been doing cardio for 15 years.
Of course, the general answer is that optimal health should include both weights and cardio, and those people who stay injury free often do some cardio before hitting the weights as part of their warm up.
Having said that I would encourage you to increase the amount of cardio you do during your weight loss phase. Cardio burns an incredible amount of calories and if weight loss is your major concern increasing cardio will help. My last long run I burned 2,600 calories. It is very hard to find an exercise that will do that. Do you want to burn that many calories at one time. Probably not, if you worry about keeping muscle mass. (That was a specific workout as my last long run before a marathon)However, if you want to burn a bit of fat increasing your cardio will certainly help you. Probably hard enough to increase your heart rate but not so intense you can't carry on a bit of conversation. If you have time, 20 minutes works for lots of folks and of course watch diet.
I'm going to leave it to the more experienced guys to answer which cardio or weights, should get priority. At this point in my own learning, I can only say that increasing cardio will reduce weight.
Hope that helps,
Wayne
