Subcontinental drift - Nitin Sawhney (observer review)

Asian music making a break for the mainstream in the last 10 yrs: Cornershop, Asian Dub Foundation, Fin-da-mental etc..

British Asian experience : Goodness Gracious Me was the 1st Asian comedy series to receive recognistion from the bbc.
Musical Bombay Dreams has was a success in the West End capitalizing on Brit Asian talent.
Celluloid films: The Guru, Bend it like Beck, Monsoon Wedding, Anita and Me etc have all revieved mainstream support and recognition.

The arts are brimming with contributions from British Asians.

"The question isn't why is this all happening now, rather why has it taken so long?"
