Is the country india not ours anymore?

With the modern day culture and thinking everything do you believe that countries like India Pakistan are being over taken by western culture in the aspects of language technology fashion eating habits health issues marriages relationships Education and anything else I am forgetting.

I agree-espescially Mumbai is like woah racing ahead with the whole western culture situaton. There's two indias-one is the one which you talk about and the other is one I watch and hear about in the news all the time.I don't think the modern India that I see is always the true picture though. What about the hundred thousands villages I see that still don't have enough money for basic living facilities let alone enough money for worrying what the latest fashion is.

I do like to believe however that no matter how "forward minded" they become, there'll always be that element that will make them the Indian that they are.

So yeah, it modern areas of India they are at this rate even racing ahead of the west lol but in the rest of india-where majority doesn't consist of a bollywood type land, this hasn't affected them that much really..YET! Its just we don't see or hear about them as much as we do about this big towns.

That is true i believe. Indians no matter how advanced eventually come home to roost.😊

But why is Bollywood-type land bad? Yeah, they show more tycoons and mansions and girls laden in jewellery than you'd expect to see in one lifetime, but the values are still quite traditional- boy sees girl, the two fall madly in love with each other, and go through hell and the high seas to be together. Why is any of that bad? It's a life we shoud also want😊

True but an average Indian or for that matter even an average American never has that. I disagree on the bit about Bollywood showing traditional Indian values though. Just watch any Emraan Hashmi movie and you'll know what I mean. Yes, not every Bollywood movie is the same but just take Salaam Namaste for example-granted it was set abroad but since when is live-in relationships part of any aspect of Indian culture? A lot of the things shown in some movies would rarely ever happen in any corner of India.

India is advancing and that too at a very fast rate, just not as fast as what is shown in our bollywood movies or hollywood movies.

Although there's no harm in every Indian wishing that they too become like srk in K3G and be dropped in a helicopter to get home for pooja lol.😛

Its natural and we should be proud that india has become one of the most advanced country in the world. But there are always plus points and minus point in any improvement. For example people still spit pan peek and urinate on the road side, rubbish and filth anywhere and everywhere, when we land at the airport everyone run after you like veltures, beggars harass you, but then there a point that whatever you want you can get in india. people have now got the sense of maturity and keen to move forward with time. The other thing I donot like is teasing the girls on the road when you are walking with friends or alone. People are trying their best to adapt good things from the west. Thats why I think most of the bollywood films are shot in USA, Uk or other parts of the world to show how the westerns live and what is their lives. India is getting very mordern now, But will take a long time until the village life is not changed then it may not. Lets hope for the best for our country. !! 😆 !!
