There are some Indian community in my area. They were born in Indonesia. The young generation couldn't speak Hindi or any Indian dialects. There's even an international school run by Indians, it's called Mahatma Gandhi International school.
I've never been to India, but my spouse has been there for couple of days when he was a teenager (about 20 years ago). He went to New Delhi. He said the road was like Indonesian capital city, hustling and bustling, traffic jam everywhere with the scenes of overloaded public transportations.
Some shopkeepers were unfriendly, but I think it might be just a cultural gap (FYI, my spouse comes from an area who is well known for being the most polite ethnic in Indonesia)
He loves the food, though. He still does. So, do I.
I once watched a documentary about the education system in India. The interviewer asked a lot of primary students about what they want to be in the future. What impressed me a lot is that almost 80-90% of them were so determined on seeing their future as a IT programmers, surgeons, and scientist. I was speechless. Is it true?
Indians also portrayed as good in Mathematics. It it some kind of stereotype or does it have the truth behind it?
