What does it mean to be openly trans in India? In a country where the LGBTQ+ community still faces discrimination and violence, the new docuseries In Transit gives an honest and touching look into the lives of nine transgender people from across India. Backed by Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti’s Tiger Baby Films, this four-part series tells real stories full of emotion, courage, and hope.
The series is available on Prime Video and is directed by Ayesha Sood. It’s filmed with care and respect by Archana Ghangrekar, who lets each individual speak freely, with the camera acting only as a silent listener. You can feel the trust between the subjects and the filmmakers, which adds to the emotional depth of the series.
Earlier, Zoya and Reema had cast trans actor Trinetra Haldar Gummaraju in Made in Heaven Season 2. But In Transit takes things a step further by focusing completely on trans voices. This makes the show an important step in representing the community in a genuine and sensitive way.
One touching moment in the series is when Aryan, one of the individuals, talks about wanting a deep connection. You understand his journey and struggles through his honest storytelling. Another powerful part features Rumi, a trans man and classical singer, who opens up about his difficult relationship with his mother. As he discovers the reasons behind her behavior, it becomes a moving moment of understanding and healing.
