Bollywood influencing Asian girls.
Would you have a problem with your daughter wanting to be a Bollywood star? And should imams discuss the grooming case in mosques? Plus Nihal talks to composer Jo Jo Remeny.
Today Nihal asks 'Would you have a problem with your daughter wanting to be a Bollywood star?'
The Girl Guides say they're worried about the sort of idols young girls have. They say that the women they look up to are reality stars like those in the "Only Way is Essex" and "Made in Chelsea" and they have no interest in more positive role models such as sports stars or those that do "boys jobs" such as Doctors or lawyers.
Do you ever worry about the sort of role models your daughter has? Do they look up to reality TV stars and Bollywood actresses? Do you worry what effect that may have on the way they behave and what their ambitions may be? Are our girls growing up too quickly? Tell Nihal what you think.
Then, Should Mosques be talking about the Rochdale grooming case at Friday prayers?
Earlier this week nine men were found guilty of horrible sexual offences against girls they had groomed. Eight of the men were from Pakistani background , one was an Afghan.
Do you think that it should be discussed in Jumah today? Is it something that the Pakistani community need to address and is the Mosque the best place to talk about it? Or do you think that there is too much unfair focus and pressure being applied on Pakistani men and its an issue for everyone to talk about? Call Nihal and tell him what you think.
Later on in the programme, Jo Jo Remeny has composed a full symphony which is a fusion of Jazz music and contemporary Indian classical music after being influenced by the poverty in India. It's called Crossing Boundaries - "Bombay is Weeping" and Remeny will be telling Nihal why he was so touched by the poor in Mumbai.
