Discussion and debate with Nihal. Is an arranged marriage the easy way out? Plus beauty expert Priti Vyas takes your questions.

At 1, Nihal chairs the debate of the day. We're asking, 'Is an arranged marriage the easy way out?' Bollywood actor Vivek Oberoi - the one who once upon a time dated Aishwarya Rai - is finally getting hitched. And it's not to a Bollywood actress or someone he's met and fallen in love with but a girl who his parents have chosen. He said he's always been open to an arranged marriage and decided to ask his parents to set him up. But it is taking the easy way out? As a young, outgoing British Asian would you turn to your parents to find you a partner? Surely you could put some effort into going out and meeting the right person? Are people who resort to an arranged marriage just lazy? Or are we too judgmental? After all, it is an Asian tradition that has been going on for years, why should it be any different in this day and age? Pick up the phone and get in touch, let us know what you think.

After 2, joining Nihal in the studio will be our beauty guru Priti Vyas and she'll be answering all your beauty related questions.
