Do you think India is an overall 'poor' country?
Well, I am an Indian guy and was wondering about our country’s perception worldwide. I thought I’d ask here as there are many americans and europeans here, so I can get an idea.
Do you believe that India is as poor as shown in movies like Slumdog Millionaire? I mean a significant part of our population does live in poverty but we have the other side of the coin as well. We have metros like Delhi and Mumbai that are world apart.
The country is a subcontinent and the part focussed on by the media and Hollywood is mostly the villages and slum areas. So has that led you to believe that the entire country is the same?
Fluther seems to be an awesome platform for me to gather your views. Cheers!
