VHS shops were 'lifeline' for the Asian community
A new project is looking at the story of South Asian communities and the importance of Bollywood VHS shops back in 1980s Britain.
The project is inspired by the personal experiences of Dawinder Bansal, who grew up in her parents’ corner shop, which sold electrical supplies and also rented VHS video films to newly arrived South Asian communities.
Dawinder took a trip down memory lane with Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Manchester’s Talat-Farooq Awan.
