Tired after a long shift volunteering for #CrisisUK, but how rewarding. Overwhelmed with the love that exists in hectic #London when you look in the right places. 3 more days to go 💕

So sad to hear the passing of legendary #tabla player Ustad #ZakirHussain confirmed. I was honoured to meet him in 2019 and thank him for accompanying my great uncle, #sitar maestro Pandit #NikhilBanerjee. He had an unrivalled sense of rhythm, winning 4 #Grammys, and heartwarming humility. RIP 🙏🏽🌺

#allweimagineaslight is a masterpiece. Three women, intimately defined, struggling to uphold honour and duty - but to what end? A wonderful portrayal of #Mumbai too, the skyline usually seen through a moving train or apartment window, with an imaginative use of light. Well done #payalkapadia 👏🏽

I’m 50% a father who took a perilous ship journey from #India to the UK to build a better life. And 50% a mother who felt it was her duty to share that life and raise me as a whole. #immigrantstories #immigrantparents
