Is it rude to Haggle? Qasa is asking this after a survey by Auto Trader suggested that nearly a third of people found haggling to be embarrassing. After that we’ll hear from Barinderjit Singh, also known as U-Singh Bolt, who is planning to run 1000 miles for Sikh charity Langar Seva Society. Then Qasa is joined by Baluji Shrivastav, a visually impaired world famous sitar player, whose Baluji Music Foundation has organised a concert that brings together Indian classical music, jazz and opera. Plus, body positive activist Michelle Elman, photographer Linda Blacker and models Bishamber Das and Simran Sandhu tell us about a new campaign they are involved in, which aims to showcase Asian plus-size representation in the modelling and fashion industry.
