The Prime drink co-founder was invited for a project by cultural arts organisation, Cohesion Plus for South Asian Heritage Month.

The celebration has been held yearly since 2018 and commemorates South Asian cultures, histories, and communities.

South Asian Heritage Month will take place this Tuesday until August 17 with a theme of “Stories to Tell”.

Earlier this year, the boxer was spotted at the Guru Nanak Darbar Gurdwara in Gravesend as he sought to educate himself about South Asian culture following an apology made over a racial slur in one of his videos.

In the now-deleted clip with his YouTube group, The Sidemen, KSI created a four-letter derogatory word for people of South Asian origin during a Countdown game.

The Sidemen will be opening their first store at Bluewater Shopping Centre in Dartford this Saturday.

The clothing shop will be the only place in Europe where fans can buy their official merchandise.
