What the Americans think of us.(part 2)

  CONTINUED....


Americans cherish their games (Nascar, Baseball, Football, B-ball, Ice Hockey and numerous others). The greater part of original Indians don't associate with any of them and keep on tracking Cricket. Americans have known about game called Cricket and I have frequently heard them joke that how could 2 groups play for 5 days and still have a draw! Part of youthful Indians track soccer and think about European soccer classes yet lamentably, Americans couldn't care less much about soccer. Truth be told, Indians are more energetic around Tennis US Open competition than Americans. Vagrants from different nations like Dominican Republic, Japan have baseball taking after, Northern Europeans play Ice hockey, Eastern and Focal Europeans (Lithuania) are extraordinary in B-ball. Given the normal stature and weight of Indians, playing Football and B-ball are not doable either. Despite the fact that there are special cases like Sim Bhullar!


 Social qualities – Indians who move to US originate from all parts of India and for the most part have a preservationist foundation and perspectives with respect to dressing, dating, and so forth. Strikingly, despite the fact that the majority of Indians talk and compose English extremely well, I saw transients from different nations who scarcely communicated in English, wind up associating more with Americans as they shared a typical culture and values. Indians are moderate in their spending and esteem reserve funds which additionally restricts their encountering other American things. Mentality – India's instruction framework trains us to be great in Maths, Science, and remembering stuff as opposed to being interested about anything. Therefore, the vast majority of the 3 million Indians are not by any means inquisitive about America and their life spins around Indian people group, Indian sustenance, Bollywood films. Therefore, Americans don't get the opportunity to see a lot of Indians despite the fact that they live in same neighborhoods. HOLLYWOOD Motion pictures AND AMERICAN Network programs – Since I cherish history, I might want to backpedal a couple of years to give you a point of view. 11 years before Dadasaheb Phalke made the primary Indian motion picture (quiet) called Raja Harishchandra, Thomas Edison (Yes, the celebrated creator, Thomas Edison) made a film on India in 1902, called Hindoo Fakir, where the mystical performer suspends his associate.

Another motion picture that got to be well known in America was a comic drama called 'The Gathering' that turned out in 1968, and considered a great clique film. Subside Merchants played the character of an Indian called Hrundi V. Bakshi. Numerous more established Americans can review this motion picture. Later, motion pictures like Indiana Jones and the Sanctuary of Fate, Slumdog Mogul, the character called "Apu" on well known energized sitcom 'The Simpsons', television arrangement 'Outsourced', Kabir Bedi in James Bond film Octopussy, or Anil Kapoor in Mission Impossible strengthened a cliché picture of India. Till date, Indian on-screen characters like Roshan Seth, Naseeruddin Shah, Anil Kapoor got the chance to assume cliché parts as it were. MEDIA – India is a great many miles far from America and you have to cross either Atlantic sea or Pacific sea to arrive. What's more, , Americans have constrained enthusiasm for thinking about the world outside America. That is the place media turns into a window of information for them. Their supposition is significantly affected by news stations like CNN, MSNBC, ABC, FOX and documentaries on National Geographic or Revelation. A few Indians accuse the media for depicting India as a place that is known for poor and uninformed, which may not generally be exact. Indeed, even discussions like Quora add to sentiment on both sides, where 40% movement is from India and the following most astounding % is from US.
