The film, “Transitions”, is an attempt to capture the band Parvaaz's musical transitions through and from their EP, "Behosh", to their album, "Baran", to yet another direction with their latest songs.

Being a dedicated theatre space, Jagriti was a brave, if odd, choice for a rock concert. Therefore, it is safe to say that everyone involved with this performance - the employees at Jagriti, the band, the light, sound and camera crew and the audience themselves - was way out of his/her comfort zone. Out of this discomfort, though, arose a challenge for the band and the crew that pulled us closer to each other and to the vision behind this concert.

The average concert video today bombards our senses with fancy lights, camera movements and gimmickry while the average concert itself comes with its various distractions that, unfortunately, have not much to do with the performers on stage.

The vision behind this concert - and hence the film - is to draw the viewer into the mood of the performance and provide an unadulterated gateway to the intimate and powerful visual and aural experience that can be a Parvaaz concert.

The result is this approximately 90-minute long cut of a feature that premiered exclusively on MTV Indies on Mar 22, 2016, followed by twice-a-day encores on that channel until Mar 28, 2016.
