Ya I agree with the above statement that most of our people are generally opting only for western culture styles such as in dressings and even in food items.
Its a just a sentences but we must not take into a big issues and sorry to use this statement kindly forgive.
Now a days because of wearing tight shirts and pants such as leg ins which causes diseases in future so we must knew well that what is good kind and we should just opt for it.
Thank you.

Yes, India is appoint western obsession and that is not a bad thing we should have to keep pace both this world if we don't do this than how could we develop ourselves but that does not mean to forget our traditions and culture our culture has its own importance has its own uniqueness by doing so we would vanish our culture so according to me don't fully copy others copy which is good but don't forget our culture create your own with mixing both culture and fashion think when most of the countries look almost same but India will have its own uniqueness.

Well, all I want to say is that there is wrong as well as right part of everything that exist in this world, we must not take the adoption of western culture by our youths as something wrong or something evil.
Because its quite natural to adopt something that is prevailing in the society but at the same time we must be equally connected with Indian culture. And 1 more thing I want to mention is that our development is hugely connected to them, and we just can't deny the fact.

I have same view for karan Johar. Till now what all movies he launched are not with a inspiring message. We can take example of "kabhi alvid na kehna". I felt it very worst out of his worst movies. He is really making youth obsessed towards western culture as well as ruining the Indian culture which is full of lessons and inspiration for other countries too. In globalized world, it does not mean that we have to forget our limitations and obsessed by western culture. We all should try to take good ideas from western culture not the bad. But some Bollywood people are messing up Bollywood and Hollywood in wrong direction. It is really dangerous sign for our coming generation.

I don't think that our obsession with celebrities is inherited from the western culture. We Indians have been obsessed with film stars and celebrities ever since the history of Indian film industry. We have been immortalising our stars cause we the poor peaple believed that the heroes are fighting for them. We wants the thing in films only to be true. We always want to do what our favourite heroes had done in films. This all was there even before we were much aware about western and foriegn films. Our mausis or aunties would tell how dying they were to see Rajesh Khanna or some other actors at that age.

Well I partially agree with the topic that India is aping the western obsession. But on the other hand its we who have to choose what's right or wrong. And the present picture clearly shows that the people of India like what is been portrayed by the publishers be it western obsessed. So I guess yes India is aping western obsession but until and unless it doesn't harm Indian culture one should go with it as there are many things to learn from that too.

Hi friends, I agree with Rituch. Mostly we are fallowing western culture nowadays. The impact of western culture will affect to our future generation. The corporate world also changing our lifestyles. So according to my point of view movies and Information Technolgy are spoiling our culture.

Indian cinema represents the culture & tradition of the country. It is the source of knowledge from which new generations learn the truth of life. Youth follows what movie shows & accepts that. So there are some film makers who shows the bitter facts of life which is not acceptable, but at some point its our responsiblity to understand the thing it is trying to show, inspite of implementing it in wrong way & trying to follow western attitude setting bad examples for others.

Our motherland India has its own diversity in culture. we are part of it. many of them forget it,rather they get catched by other cultures.Its horrible. Not only in movies but also in some cities western culture has great influence.its really worse. we should not let our own country go down rather give a rising to it.

Each have their own personel interest. Its ones choice to follow or not, no one restricts. As some fundamental rights have been given to people. Some really try to ape. If you take the example of new generations, they always love to make choices, whether it is in hair styles dressing styles or life styles. And for options they look forward to our celebrity life. Day by day we have updating new trends so obviously we will have a slight deviation towards them.
