That said, she definitely doesn't have a typical Indian accent. Women like Lara Dutta, PC, Ash, Sush do not have "Indian" accents or rather, the west, America's perception of them.
Americans are warm, very friendly & open from my experience, and culturally curious esp if the culture is Indian but asking Indians whether they play with snakes & do they have to walk to school is probably not the best way to endear yourself to an Indian. 😆 This has actually happened to me but yes, my experience dealing with Americans is limited, so maybe these are just a handful of ignoramuses.
Yes, she went to high school here, but grew up a little bit. Not the full on though.. Lol, you could say I have half grown up in few countries.
P.C. might not have the typical Indian accent, but she definitely does not have the 100%. She does not sound like a local here. Good luck to her though.. She is hardworking, ambitious, and going so far. She getting a prime time show on ABC is a huge deal. Maybe,her show become a success and pick up.ABC network is actually trying to bring diversity in television. Thank God, they are doing something better than stupid Bachelor show they air.😡
Yes, most of them are culturally curious , warm and friendly. We are.😳Lol, you were asked that..😆 I was asked whether I had a green card even though I am citizen of this country.I was asked whether people dance in the street. What's up with the cows?🤣
No Trip, there are Americans who can be really ignorant and very stereotypical. Than , they are who can be very curious and will ask you in a polite way. They are who are actually very aware and educated. You can't generalize :)
