When I was about to come to India I had so many ideas too. Especially because everyone around me scared me to death about what to expect. But I was sooo wrong. Everyone were sooo wrong. And I do not, even for a little bit regret coming. I am but only glad I did. And now I am married to an Indian Hindu of all people! 😁😄 Love from Turkey 😊🙏❤
@@aryandhiman13 We got rid of the TV. And RUclips videos are pretty much all we watch now for entertainment. And these are generally recommended videos, so maybe the algorithm is showing us the same videos? 😄😁
Rickshaw driver or any seller for the matter hypes up the price for everyone, because they also know that we gonna bargain to reduce the normal price, so they increase in the start to bargain.
I only see them during SAAWAN, the holy month of *MAHADEV* . And never see snake charmers the entire year or rarely during *Kumbh Mela* at *PRAYAGRAJ* .

In one of your earlier videos, you had said, "India is my home now", and the way you talk about everything ... it really shows. I am sure many foreign visitors are finding your channel and/or your blog before they decide on their journey, and your influence and your information is certainly making their journeys safer, more enjoyable. At the same time, it is also positively effecting the locals all those visitors interact with. So, thank you for your wonderful work. Addendum: the production quality of your videos is pretty awesome these days!
One more misconception :- ,,😂😂'' One of my online friend from US told me once that according to him , India being a spiritual country , he expected everyone on the streets and all the indians must be doing Yoga every morning and evening . There must be hundreds of thousands of Yoga centers everywhere.

You are foreigner, even Indian people when go to the other part or state of India they have to pay higher price than local, local understand that he/she is from other state of India by language/accent😂😂😂😂

Well, Indian Railways has been revamped tremendously. Those pictures are mostly in history now.... If you can pay good then you will have a wonderful journey throughout India especially Himalayan and Konkan Railway
The transformation of Indian Railways has been phenomenal in the past few years. Increased cleanliness and sanitation, modern rolling stock, great infrastructure, increased punctuality and speed. The services onboard have become better on many trains as well.
sorry from my side, in north people study only to get a govt job mostly, and their idea of south india comes from Bollywood and south cinmeas since all south movies are dubbed in hindi so people assume they also speak hindi, since this is their only source of knowledge, but most young people in cities knows the diffrence, again i ask sorry on their behalf
@@oksowhat why are you sorry. This also holds true for the north east. Most Indians do not know any north eastern languages. Hindi should be made the national language because almost everyone can understand it and learn it.
@@edwardspencer9397 Nop. Only around 40 % of Indians are hindi speakers. Hindi is already an official language. What's the point of enforcing a national langauge ?
Benjamin's research and coverage is spot on . Spitting straight facts and things as they are. I follow some foreign youtubers but this by far the most spot on coverage and true perception vs reality coverage of Indian sub continent.
Hey Ben, You are doing more to improve India's image in the west than what Indians themselves could do to improve our image abroad. Thank you so much, Ben. We owe you a lot!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Hey as an indian I can’t believe people think that India is a uneducated country and also please do make more of these videos so that we can try to make this as awareness and also I am a new subscriber!!
Meat is very common around the world but it's hard for Vegetarian travelers like me actually India is heaven for Vegetarians u can get variety of dishes !
I admire your research on India and your generous opinion. Thanks for exploring Thiruvannamalai my district headquarters Wish you safe journey during your stay in India
The official languages of India are Hindi and English on federal level. On state level there are 22 official languages. Due to 343 article Hindi is an official language but amendment in 1963 allowed using English.
Rickshaw drivers do tend to increase or decrease prices as per the time hour as well. Like when in morning I had missed the bus and had to travel, they take Rs. 5, but during rush hours of afternoon they would take Rs. 7 from everyone.
I see most of the people in the comment section are indians, i feel kinda sad that we indians already know true india but the pnes westerners who need to know the truth are not present here, so kinda 😔
Your experience is accurate to south India but your view had been different if it had been in Delhi or UP where most tourist go to. To understand India, you have to spend time in each state and I hope you will enlighten some people.
Hey ben ! I have been watching your videos for some time now ...i noticed that you are based in southern india only ...but why not try north india? You can spend a month or two in north india or can shift here now, because it's a completely different place, has complete different way of living and completely different people. You can consider living in noida or greater noida in the state of uttarpradesh , these cities are very clean developed and have good roads .... u'll have a good time living here.
Surely he wont because All those stereotypes he us talking about is applicable for north India Im from UP and yes in south they have soo much stereotypes for us
Brilliant video (actually all your posts are very refreshing)! You should cross a million within this year:-) You need more people from the USA or other English speaking nation as subscriber especially who are planning to travel to India.
I was so much relieved you mentioned kerala in every instance possible, I too love kerala, kerala is more secure than any other tourist destination, I don't know why I had a experience in TN THEY CHARGED ME 80 RS FOR A NEARBY DESTINATION AUTO RIKSHA THEY CAME AROUND A SAME ROUTE TWICE (HOW I NOTICED I SAW THE SAME STATUE TWICE) SCAMMERS ARE THERE EVERYWHERE WE NEED TO BE SO CAREFUL, AND THANK YOU FOR INTRODUCING BRAHMA MUHURTHA WILL BE PRACTICING, NAMASKARAM

Wow, thanks!
Karl Rock spread only propaganda..
I agree 3000
Karl Rock is too much in to anti Hindu politics.
@@Captain_Sosuke_Aizen reason is his wife is from a political family. so propaganda is there. and now he is spreading love for hindu temple etc as he got banned from india 🤣

Once legends said"it's easier to get into havard or mit but not in the IIT"
Accept it IIT is the nightmare for foreign students, they can't even qualify the jee main 😂😂😂
Some of them
There's DASA for foreign students...so its technically easier than how the general public would get in.
Guys! Let's push our Ben's amazing work to 1M people....
This land is filled with surprises.
It’s even surprises us whenever we travel to other states.
You are foreigner, even Indian people when go to the other part or state of India they have to pay higher price than local, local understand that he/she is from other state of India by language/accent😂😂😂😂
I have developed a technique for that
1) Asking From local Before taking any service.
2) Bargaining the price most of the time
@@epicyoutuberecommendations yes but know the whereabouts of the place where you have to go. Bargaining now a days is no more, only in few specific market where you will benefitted, rest of all places not much weigh on your pocket.
True 😂😂 I have faced this even though I am indian 😂😂
Rickshaw drivers will scam every one, they don't discriminate 😁😁😭😭
😂true most of them do
True
Cannot agree more, they are the epitome of Equality and Socialism….
Soo true
If they realise this is a cheater,they also might cheat.

Man you are such an inspiring personality. You inspire western world to go tour for india. Keep it on. Lots of love ❤️❤️
Thank you! Will do!
👌 Authentic review

Luv from Tamil Nadu 💗💗
Great video, and very accurate facts. Thanks for sharing
Woww.. Do more videos about this topic Ben.
IN KERALA THE RIKSHAS HAS METERS BUT IN TAMIL NADU THERE WAS NO METERS
Nice video 👍😊
U r awesome bro..... Your research based on statistics,data & observation which you collected with in the country
I really enjoy watching this... Good topic...
The official languages of India are Hindi and English on federal level. On state level there are 22 official languages. Due to 343 article Hindi is an official language but amendment in 1963 allowed using English.
I wonder how you come up with such wide range of topics!! Never miss your video.
Subscribed dude! You won me with this video
5:20 if the shop keeper say 200 rs
They you have say " I will give 20 rs no more then that"
It is my mother style
Rickshaw drivers do tend to increase or decrease prices as per the time hour as well. Like when in morning I had missed the bus and had to travel, they take Rs. 5, but during rush hours of afternoon they would take Rs. 7 from everyone.
My Opinion about India is Don't Think of India 🇮🇳 like a Country. Think Of India Like A Group Of Many Similar Countries like A European Union.
Nope it's very different from a union. India has lots of diversity . Every state has more diversity than countries in Europe.
Well researched video.thank you.
Your are one of the best American Indian youtuber. Everyone else seem to make video on India just for views
Recently came across your channel, and you're so balanced in your views. Love watching your videos.

Persistence is paying off 🙌
