    It’s been a while since I went to visit thaiya ji. He was a bit mad about it. But I had some exciting news to share…   #BothNotHalf is available to pre-order now! Out 16 May. Available in hardback, eBook, and audiobook - which I will be narrating!

    My Sikh father attended a convent school in India as a boy and read Bible stories to me as a child. We've just had a lunch of aloo paranthas and mince pies with our Muslim relatives. May we all find that good place this festive season. Merry Christmas Eve!🎄

    I grew up in a mining village where the church was the centre of social life so I joined in, (and now know an impressive amount of carols.) My parents- a Sikh mum and Hindu father said all religious roads lead to the same good place. Whatever your faith, peace and love to you all

    I cannot even begin to explain how proud I am of @Waleedakhtar. Anyone who saw The P Word knows how deeply deserved this award is. Even when he only has the stage for two minutes, he raises the roof... "If I wasn't fasting, I'd probably say F the Tories."

    My TEDx talk has finally been released! All about mixed heritage identity and the genesis of #BothNotHalf. I’ll never forget this day. For so long I’d felt caught between two worlds, then I found an answer that changed everything. This is my story. 📺: youtu.be/SP0bAQ8J6C0

    I still #StandWithFarmers and support their peaceful protest. No amount of hate, threats or violations of human rights will ever change that. #FarmersProtest

    One week until #BothNotHalf is published in the UK! I rediscovered this photo of me and my grandad while I was preparing for my TEDx talk in late 2019. As I prepared my slides, I saw my younger self in a totally new light…I noticed how six-year-old me was completely at ease…

    Had the pleasure of attending the launch of @AmitandNaroop's book #TurbansAndTales at @NAM_London. An incredible collection of portraits exploring contemporary Sikh identity. Naturally, Uncle-ji wanted to know what I was up to... #WhitePunjabi #BothNotHalf (feat. @HOUSE_of_WARIS)

    Heartbroken but bursting with pride. What an incredible team. They’ve made the beautiful game truly radiant. They’ve given us so much to love. They took the knee, raised their game, and showed us all that THIS IS ENGLAND! Unity through diversity. A true team. A proud nation. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
