Quotes
Bandwagons roll through our lives. It’s up to you whether you jump on them unquestioningly or jump on them to overturn them and subvert them.
Riz Ahmed
Being South Asian in the U.K. is like being Latino in the U.S., I would guess. It’s a bit more hood. You see things; things happen. I was bouncing between worlds. You’re acting from a very early age, when you have to code-switch like that. I’m a hybrid, a mongrel. I think many people live that life.

Post 9/11 Blues’ is an observational satire about the surreal circus of fear at that time. It’s a generational thing.

Anyone driving great social change, willingly or not, is going to be a fascinating contradictory mix of idealism and ego.

I get good references from a wide range of music. Something who’s been a good influence in the last few years is Qawwali music. If you listen to a Qawwali singer like Aziz Mian – he’s like James Brown. Qawwali is like Pakistani gospel-jazz. It’s emotional, but it’s also improvised, and it’s all about that sacred-and-profane tightrope.
