For those indians asking how the general population thinks about india here is the perspective of the "average joe" or next gen deshi.
I am a Bangladeshi, I love my country, and i have no love or hate toward india, just dont really care, I dont think we have much cultural affinity with indians (we dont eat the same food or talk the same language etc).
Like my friends I dont watch indian movies (the older generation and wanabes still do) or buy any indian brands (its all chinese now-days anyway).
We are more influenced nowdays by the west culturally, and USA in particular. We buy chinese goods, go to British/Ausi Unis, watch US movies and listen to western music.
All we want is to keep equi-distance fom all regional powers (China, india and the US), improve our economy and wait till these corrupt politicians die of old age.
Look right now there is a pro indian AL gov in power, so for now they will make deals with delhi, do joint venture with indian firms etc, and screw the public like all politicians do.
Next election there will be a new government, who will be pro chinese, make deals with beijing, do joint venture with chinese firms and screw the public.
This see-saw won't change anytime soon.
