About
The NRI is an online magazine dedicated to the vast and diverse international community of Indians residing outside of India. Spread throughout every corner of the globe, these various groups have immersed themselves in new lifestyles and customs but are inextricably linked with each other through the powerful bond of Indian culture.
We will report on NRI communities around the globe and highlight their achievements in different spheres of life. At the same time we will bring you news from India to forge a closer understanding between Resident and Non Resident Indians and create a greater cultural awareness amongst those who want to reconnect with their Indian roots.
Sandeep Sandhu was born and raised a Londoner, hailing from the prominent NRI outpost that is Southall. The town has certainly shaped his writing and perception of the world and continues to be a thriving cosmopolitan part of the city. More taken with literature and the arts, he quickly pursued these both academically and personally. You’re likely to see him providing social commentary on health and well-being, popular culture and the general cultural condition of being an NRI in London.
Peta Jinnath Andersen is a freelance and fiction writer. Born in Sydney, Australia, to a Fiji-Indian father and Scottish mother, she’s a bit confused about her background, but loves it all the same. Currently living in the US, she has just had her first child, and is busy studying hard in an effort to learn more about her Indian heritage – including taking Hindi lessons – so she can teach her son about just what it is that makes an NRI special.
