How Religion Shapes Love and Relationships | Alina Gufran on Love Matters
Saturday, 7 February, 2026
What happens when love crosses religious lines? In this episode of Love Matters, Leeza Mangaldas speaks with writer Alina Gufran, author of No Place to Call My Own, about growing up in a Hindu–Muslim household, navigating identity, and dismantling stereotypes around interfaith love. How does faith influence who we choose to love? What do identity, belonging, and family expectations mean in modern relationships? And can love bridge cultural and religious differences? Tune in for a candid conversation on love, faith and dating in contemporary India. And share your thoughts in the comments — we’d love to hear your experiences.Leeza Mangaldas’ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leezamangaldas/?hl=enYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_BANQfJbw0lPAGHtAeX5nwCREDITS:Produced by:Patricia Szilagyi (DW)Khyati Rajvanshi (IE)Charulata Biswas (IE)Researcher and EditorSana Rizvi (DW)Video Editor:Meetesh Dixit (IE)Project Manager:Patricia Szilagyi (DW)Executive Producer:Melanie von Marschalck (DW)Anant Nath Sharma (IE)Editorial Support:Shashank Bhargava (IE)Prerana Deshpande (DW)Love Matters with Leeza Mangaldas is an initiative by DW, Germany’s international broadcaster.
