contents This thesis embarks on a comprehensive investigation of modified gravity theories and their implications on the properties of compact objects. Our primary objective is to shed light on the fundamental nature of gravity by exploring potential departures from General Relativity (GR) through a combination of theoretical analyses and observational techniques. On the theoretical side, we consider black hole thermodynamics, stability of compact objects, presence of black hole hairs, and the issue of causality that may provide valuable input towards the ultimate quantum theory of gravity. Moreover, on the observational side, we employ gravitational wave observations and black hole perturbation theory to explore new aspects of gravity and put stringent bounds on the beyond-GR parameters. To provide a structured overview of the thesis, we have organized it into chapters that progressively delve deeper into these diverse aspects of modified gravity and compact objects. Each chapter is dedicated to a specific facet of our investigation, building a coherent narrative that spans both theoretical and observational explorations. We aspire to achieve nothing less than imparting valuable insights and novel perspectives that may significantly enhance our understanding of the fundamental nature of gravitation.
