In western countries like US , racism is deeply rooted but most of the country knows its wrong. So i think thats the difference. But i agree it shouldnt havr been said. Progress is necessary and what indian youth and audience can do is point it out and call out the writrrs and directors for it when it happens rsaher than dislike and ignore for sure!
I think it would be really effective if the writers have a character onscreen correct her regressive attitude within the dialogue. Even more effective if it came from her younger daughter who generally sides with her.
