“Cloud 9 is a British-Asian drama series – which balances the cultural values of Brit-Asians with their Western lifestyle. Family, festivities, culture, religion are an important part of Brit-Asian life but how they are understood and celebrated in the UK is unique. We would like to see the viewers joining in on this celebration of Brit-Asian culture!”
