My Heart Sings Your Song shows the life of East African Asians and takes you to the world of contemporary romance. Where Have We Come looks at the cultural clashes experienced by young British Asians and is a heartfelt retelling of a them striving to keep their son alive and safe.
Before she started writing South Asian drama, Saz had a successful career in Television Production and Teaching…But her need to write stories has led to what she is doing now – writing tales about people like her in multi-cultural Britain. 
She lives in West London, England with her husband in an empty house as her two beautiful sons have begun their own life journey. 

Saz is a member of the Royal Society of Arts and supports several charitabe organisations, the UK Asian Film Festival, as a board member responsible for emerging talent and as a founding member of the Asian Circle an affiliate of The Circle, an NGO set-up by Annie Lennox. The Asian Circle is currently working with Oxfam India with indigenous communities in the eastern state of Chhattisgarh, on women’s issues. She passionately believes in raising awareness of mental health and gand supports Sands with their ongoing research into Neonatal deaths and supporting families through their grief journey. Locally she is trustee with Ealing Music Therapy, a charity that provides music therapists to young people and children in Special and mainstream schools.

Saz gets her inspiration from listening to music, cooking and watching Bollywood, Hollywood and Independent films, hence the references to songs, food and films in all her books.

Her books are aimed at new adults, contemporary romance, women’s fiction and book club fiction readers – stories that make you think, for readers who like the multicultural layers of South Asian family melodrama, Bollywood style gatherings and lots of references to food. They will also appeal to readers of stories that cover adult themes. She draws on her upbringing in England and the layers of complexity of living with her Indian heritage and her Britishness and uses this to create stories to represent that.
