Here is a business idea: If someone can invent an ointment / cream that would convert desi skin into gora skin, it would have a tremendous market among NRIs (such as the author) in western countries. Accent can be changed, citizenship can be changed... but unless skin color can be changed, how can one become a "pucca" firang?

Still better be more of a Canadian or British than them in demoing yr newly acquired western culture. Constantly bash India Yes Everyday, Say how difficult for you to drink water of the tap in yr parents 2nd rate towm Bhatilda or Sangli or Coimbatore.. or curse & say how old fashioned your grand ma was when she wanted to sit & help you eat her home made food. Also Do not forget to toss yr american accent to baffel your poorly clad cousins in India or pick on your uncles for not allowing you to go to a night club because they think you can get raped in a safe place like Delhi at 2 AM while you are in yr normal scantly worn clothes with inviting looks. How terrible these desi relatives of my parents are & how terrible India is....Come on, Mrs Banerjee, all of us have relatives in US & some are more culturly mature than our kith & kin in India, So what is yr problem with India...
