i saw a movie last night on cable it was 'i proud to be an indian' there they showed a lot of discrimination by english to indian especially a separate group of gangsters called 'skin haze' who used to hate indians they treated indians like s_hit i was wondering that if this was real?? do they actually do it?? so i thought i wud ask my igt friends residing in uk so frnds can u help my curosity?? in other countries also is the situation like this??? i've heard in middle east also its like this!! wats it like in usa,canada & other european countries?? plz post!!!
dude... me in dubai rite now.... dosen't seem like there is discrimination.... dunno about u.k. or other countries... over here the scene is pretty cool
here in UK anti-social behaviour and racism are big problems, its not that every pakistani/indian is hit by the racist goups, such physical attacks are very rare. for example i remember once i was in this bus and i sat with this racist white guy, and first thing he said was "dont sit with me if u have a bomb in that bag!" ... i was like what???? but generally, i must say that british people are very warm and friendly people, there are a very few "gangs" who just doesnt want to live in peace but 99% or brits have large welcoming hearts, there is so much cultural diversity in england alone that they have even paired thier cities and boroughs with indian cities, for example there is an area in birmingham call smethwick its paired with amritsar india, and they have put up boards proudly tellin this fact! for me england has become just like a second home, to be honest i now consider myself half pakistani and half brit, and i owe this all to the british public ... they are just awesome. but like every other country there are trouble makers ... nothin can be done about them i dun want to get political but even the politcal parties are known to be racist here in uk .. PM me if u wanna know the name .. but i am sure u already know. so in a nutshell, its not as bad as it is told, its all propaganda, there is no open discrimination on the basis of skin colour, all live in peace and harmony ... oh yeah i rem, in this term, there are 5 MP's and 3 Lords that are pakistani's!!(in the westminster) so yeah all are treated equal (sorry dunno about indians, will look into it) by the way the latest "word around" in uk is "neva fall asleep in tube or bus!!!" .. cuz these teens video u sleeping in the bus with their mobile phones and then one of em will SLAP u really hard ... i mean really really hard!! as the video is being made ... then run off ... its really sick .. i have seen the vids these gangs.... they dont even pardon the pensioners!!
there are problems, there will always be problems where ever you go but its in the minority. i have a perfectly happy life here and my friend circle is mixed.
most people are warm and courteous. I've felt ppl here in the US show more respect than I've seen in India! But wherever you go, minorities will be discriminated against. I know of cases where firangs were treated shabbily in India. Happens everywhere. Just keep your cool and selfrespect. give respect and get respect. don't worry abt random idiots. For instance, if someone told me that in a bus ("dont sit with me if u have a bomb in that bag!") you could say "If I really had a bomb in my bag, would it make a difference to u if I was sitting somewhere else on this bus?" and quietly move to a different seat if one is available.
^^^actually the movie is called "I proud to be an Indian" it's not "i m proud to be an indian".....and no i have never been discriminated or seen any1
@shahrukh didn't understand these two cases!!!! @cypher man didn't u see the movie its name is---- I - proud to be an indian @ananth i have noticed in many cases in this rigard & seen tht US has less of this discrimination thing @ajax man i heard frm a family frnd who lived in dubai as a doc. he was strongly discriminated he even didn't get any patients in his pvt. clinic for 7 yrs. b4 going there he was much like a sudo hi-fi person after coming back he literally kissed the land on the airport @ all i have taken up a summer holiday assignment on the same topic i need extnsive info on this shahrukh,ajax,browneye,desipride,ananth & all others please help me!!!!!!
dat ws supposed to be a joke dude....n btw ive seen da movie....to be frank its juss crap......too stereotype.....
@somendra_guitar: aah neva mind ...... the second thing is just one ma famous rubbish talks and the first one is well ... the area of smethwick is so heavily populated with sardar jees that the council people have officially called it the sister city of amritsar india .. so basically they have acknowledged the sikh community and they feel proud of having them .. thats good!
UK most people are RACIST "M F" (I am not saying ALL) ........ Remember "Salpal Ram"........ What they did to him........ That way UK sucks......
