SBS Spice

Is being South Asian all there is to a South Asian character on TV? Breaking beyond what is expected of brown faces on our screens, Ayesha Madon, lead of the Netflix hit 'Heartbreak High', speaks with SBS Spice about how doing a role that didn't center around her identity alone was game changing. She says there is no gatekeeper, one has to make their own gate. The question remains: where do we begin?

SBS Spice breaks new ground with English language content for young Australians of South Asian heritage. It's a fresh new look at pop culture, identity, food, sport, history and much more.
