If you're in Mumbai…
Attend a video art exhibition
With a specific focus on the artists themselves, the August edition of the video art exhibition explores the existentialist crisis and the ability each individual has to create or destroy, and the burden that accompanies it. If you're looking to look for a little self-exploration, this exhibition is for you.
When: August 1, 3:30pm (and through the month of August)
Where: Dr. Bhau Daji Lad Museum, Mumbai
Crank up your Friday night

Understand the nature of things

If you're in Bengaluru…
Attend a psychedelic punk jazz concert

Listen to Indus Creed live
Famously known as India's frontrunner for rock, Indus Creed comes together with Khalid Ahamed to perform live with their unique sound, revolving around the importance of free expression. Whether or not you’re a fan of classic rock, this night will surely be one to remember.

If you're in Delhi…
Go down three different paths

Watch a Mahesh Bhatt play
Written by Mahesh Bhatt and Suhrita Sengupta, Hamari Adhuri Kahaani is based on the novel, All That Could Have Been, and tells the tale of love that bloomed between two unexpected people—a rich hotelier and a married florist—a love expected to be doomed from the very beginning. Starring Bhatt’s protégé, Imran Zahid, this play is definitely one to tug at your heartstrings.
