with Zaara: Brown Girl Chronicles

New voices. New sounds.

Zaara Azira celebrates the stories, traditions and unforgettable moments that make the brown girl experience so unique.

Reflecting on growing up in a close-knit family of strong women, she explores how Bollywood shaped her ideas of love, why aunties always have questions about marriage and how everyday acts of care, from hair oiling to shared meals, became her first lessons in love.

Zaara mixes humour, heartfelt storytelling and wedding-worthy anthems in a celebration of identity, sisterhood and the women who came before her.

Featuring iconic songs from Kal Ho Naa Ho, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Bang Bang!, Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela and more.

Produced in Birmingham by Solis Productions for BBC Asian Network.
