Zayn Malik's engagement and mixed-race relationships

Does Zayn Malik's engagement mean that Asians are more accepting of mixed-race relationships? Plus, Nihal speaks to writer Ayndrilla Singharay about her new play, Unsung.

Join the debate with Nihal at 10. He's asking, does Zayn Malik's engagement mean that Asians will be more accepting of mixed race relationships? If you haven't already heard the One Direction singer is getting married to Little Mix's Perrie Edwards. His dad is of Pakistani origin, whilst she's white. Will this do the world of good for all those third and fourth generation British Asians getting into mixed race relationships? Or have those perceptions actually already changed?

After 11, writer Ayndrilla Singharay talks about her new play Unsung which looks at the treatment of women in her community.

And after midday, Gin and Rees join Nihal live in studio to talk about their new track Chak de Phattey, which is Nihal's Track of the Week.
