Two Cultures, One Love

Three young Australian couples speak to SBS Spice on their love stories and navigating the hurdles of being South Asian and in intercultural relationships. From left to right: Anmol Sharma and Shaamikh Ali, Ben McMahon and Dom Thattil, and Guneet Kaur and Josh Morel.

Love can be the answer to many of our world's conundrums but also the root of many contradictions. For South Asians, it can often come at a cost. Whilst it is widely believed that love is unconditional, barriers like race, religion, caste and culture often draw a fine line between acceptance and rejection. SBS Spice loves love, so this episode celebrates the journeys of three Australian couples who together foster the connection that unites them rather than the obstacles that divide them.
