Dil Neiyyar
Dil asks if some Asian families are failing to tackle domestic violence.
A couple are said to have flown from India to America to join their son in beating their daughter-in-law for being disobedient. These kind of cases are very rare but are some Asian families turning a blind eye to domestic violence? Then one of Pakistan's busiest actors Ahsan Khab talks to Dil about his new production 'Ishq', which will be performed at Sadler's Wells Theatre. It tells the tale of two lovers and their feuding families and has been compared to Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Afterwards, film-maker Jay Singh-Sohal discusses the 120th anniversary of the Battle of Saragarhi, where 21 Sikh soldiers defended a frontier between colonial India and Afghanistan. He's created a docu-drama to mark the occasion, which tells the story of the 36th Sikh Regiment who fought for the British Empire. After this, Dil discusses a new play, 'Pink Sari Revolution' which explores the struggles of social activist Sampat Pal and her movement of over 400,000 women who wear pink saris and campaign for women's rights. It will be performed at the Curve in Leicester and associate director Suba Das and playwright Purva Naresh talk about the production. Then we discuss the plight of Rohingya refugees. More than 123,000 Rohingya are said to have fled violence in Myanmar's Rakhine state since late August. What can the international community do about the situation? We ask independent human rights activist Jamila Hanan and Phil Robertson, deputy director of Human Rights Watch's Asia division.
