According to the Pew Research Center, 86% of South Asians marry within their own ethnicity and despite the vast adoption of mobile dating apps, the reality of finding like-minded South Asians is still challenging and time-consuming. Individuals have to swipe endlessly to find someone with a similar religion, ethnicity, or lifestyle. Kama was created to solve this problem — the app provides a much easier way to find and meet compatible South Asians of all different ethnic backgrounds and beliefs including Indian, Pakistani, Sri Lankan, Bangladeshi, or Nepali.

“We designed the app to attract ambitious, successful, and sophisticated South Asians who have a modern mindset but who still embrace their culture,” adds Patel. “Busy professionals can use Kama to cut through the clutter and find high quality matches that perfectly fit their lifestyle and culture.”

Kama users get to enjoy sleek design and straightforward simplicity, fitting nicely into time-starved millennial lifestyles. The app is driving an astounding 60% match rate among users, illustrating its success at bringing people together and encouraging genuine interactions that evolve into love or friendship.
