Pranav Mistry's Accent - Did It Really Matter?
Why do Indians love to fake accent?
I've seen this mad love Indians have about the American / British accent. I've seen how idiotic people sound when they try to fake their accent. On the other hand, I've seen Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, German people trying to speak in their natural accent and no one cares. But Indians are different. We absolutely love people who've mastered the western accent. In fact, we immediately begin treating them with 10x more respect.
This question is about the 'accent'. Does it really matter in today's world? Is it because we're taught to be like the people in the west to 'appear' smart, well-informed and educated?
What do you think?
