Inflation in India is at nonsensical levels for a poor country. Dosa for 150 rs today vs 20 rs in 2004? Housing at US prices in India? What crap. Businesses in India are mimicking the west and try to fleece the public, but salary levels are no where comparable to what they are in other countries. We cannot have so much inflation in a poor and developing country like India.

[@AP-qu8sl]

How much is a dosa in the US? Around 12$ to 13$ easily (more in some places) so 150 is reasonable

I see many of the comments are against the couple which seems to be just the grapes are sore kind of comments. I'm assuming some those folks are at this video just to convince themselves that life outside India is not great. Having said very realistic input from both the couple. It's actually interesting that they moved back when their daughter was pretty young in spite of having green card and US citizenship. Yes they do have the option of going back if they don't like it in India which is the I think primary takeaway here since as humans we want to have options always. Just one note that the guy is not very great at communication. It was so hard to listen to him for long 😊. She's certainly much more outspoken than him and it's clear that the move was more from his side than her and she obviously misses US more than him😊

So basically think long term don't let little things bother you. You'll enjoy your life. Long term goal - living with parents or in-laws, kids education in good/international schools, easy access to healthcare, overall things are cheaper compared to US/ you get help if you want/ more services n professional help. Write down what are your Short term goals : maybe find friends/ social circle, access to groceries, library, parks, at times free activities.

The thing which I do not like about USA/UK but many Indians thinks this is the reason why they have settled in USA. Many NRI think they have taken pain to live in west because of their child bright future but they do not realise your kids will have problemetic family life and they may suffer in their middle age by the time you will be gone from this wolrd. They will have to find partner on their own. Indian parent now do not want to marry their kid to those who are born and spend all their life in USA/UK so your kids will on their own like natives but if you look in natives a good percentage of them have relationship problem, many are not bale to find suitable partner by the age of 40. By the time of third generation stable family life condition deteriorates. Not all will have this fate but likelyhood of this is much higher by your third generation in usa than in India. Indian gets influenced by american culture living in India, just imagine how much your kids will be influenced by anglo saxon culture in USA from school. Most of them even religious will have less spritual connection to Hinduism, in India even athesit will have some spritual connection to Hinduism. The school holidays are according to christians. We do not realise how much indirectly this effect the kids and enforce feeling of minority. You are living with confident in USA because you have grown in India among your own people and by the time you gone usa your behaviour is not going to change, even you are miniority you will not have fear of minority in usa. But condition of your second and third generation is completley different. In Anglo saxon culutre the relationship between child and parent is not so deep like in Indian culture. As a result the relationship between your second and third generation will be not so deep like you and your parent. The second and third generation will suffer lonliness more in their old age or after middle age compare to you.

By what age it gets difficult for kids to adapt in India. We had a good family emergency and that makes me think, we would want to back permanently to India in some time. My daughter is currently 5, will it be too difficult for the child 3-4 years down the line when we would want to move back permanently?

It is rote based edu even in unis (excepts a top few like IIT and its equivalent in law, business, commerce, journalism, history, ...etc.) Medical is like alibaba 40 theives. It is not protocol based treatment in India but it is ur net worth based. So keeping all the privileges of US citizenship and talking big in India is of no use. So renounce first then talk.

Will never go back to a country which respects Narayan Murthy who pays 2 dollar per hour salary for engineers sucking 98 dollars as commission in between. On top of that he demands 70 hours work week when paying only for 40 hours. As long as such chronic capitalists are given a free hand, hard working middle class will end up dying on the streets with peanut salaries. My cousin in law who passed away with a cardiac arrest at 33 was not even reimbursed for death certificate cost of 10 dollars by Infosys. HR said they are not in the business of transporting dead bodies back to India. Not to mention both of Murthy's kids quit India long back and are not returning even when Mr. Murthy is 78 and showing all signs of dementia.

[@anilprasanna]

@gauthamvasudeva9271 But FAANG has a product. What does WITCH have? Wipro, Infosys, TCS, CTS, HCL?? All you need is a 20 % commission agent in between to ensure more end client dollars are in your pocket as you work for any of the fortune 500 companies in USA as IT techie. You do not need INFOSYS as implementation partner dictating terms to you. Instead of working for 14 hours a day for 1 dollar per hour, work for 7 hours a day for 80 dollars per hour.

[@poojasingh99999]

By your logic a person will earn just 12800 per month if they are paid 2 dollar per hour. Client allow infosys to increase head count by stanadard calculation of work 40hr per week per head. Infosys pay less to new joiners who needs some training and they are attached with senior who are working on project and get annual salary above 8 lakh. Many freshers are not good to start work immediately even as junior. The reason for this in engineering college in india people are not ready to even work as junior techie on client projects. I have seen few of them who were just ready to work as junior after 2 years on client project. I have guided few my relative on things like what they should learn to work independetly on project as junior dev. I never worked with infosys. This is good for those who take time to learn skill to start as junior on client project as this buy time and also they get payment. But it is bad for those who are already ready after college to work on client project. I do not like infosys but looking at this I appreciate infosys and tcs as this help lots of techie in IT to buy time and stands on their own legs in their carreer and change job after experience and exposure and move to good pay rise in other companies. This is not appreciation post for infosys but accpeting the fact that many people will lost job due to lack of skill and willnot get chance to survive in IT. This is due to indian college education systemm where theory is focussed more than practiclas. The things are changing, many students are skilling themselves on their own from college time. So this model of infosys and tcs will not work for long time.

very prescriptive stance..."do this", "think like that"....would've been more effective if they had shared more real examples of how they adjusted, things that worked, things that did not, day to day challenges - for example, when 18:11 the guy says, "life is not perfect" it would have been nice to give instances when they felt so rather than hammering the point about 'knowing why you want to come back'...the interviewer could have asked them to illustrate (interviewer needs to be more relaxed, and carry on a conversation rather than Q&A format)

[@DesiReturn]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. You have to balance the act of hitting the key areas in ~ 30 min and not let conversation drag on. I prefer conversation style and would pay extra attention.

Go to India only when you become financially independent.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

[@jaggarao2312]

Video is lengthy.. it should have been shorter..!!

[@DesiReturn]

We plan to do shorts that cover specific points but as a podcast the videos are about 30 min

[@bharatvaidya10]

First 30sec kuch kam karo. Bit boring

[@DesiReturn]

Thanks for watching. It's intro for new people and returnees can skip. But we will keep it mind and see what we can do. Thanks for feedback

[@lakshganesh4776]

It is not a useful discussion for the following reasons.. 1..They are still US citizens otherwise she cant work for a US company. 2.physically staying in India but not being a citizen is hypocritcal at best. 3. All these talks about culture and taking care of parents etc etc all is an eyewash. 4.Finally never trust anyone who returns back to the lavilion after spending 2 decades.. Whatever they say will never be clear and truthful.

[@DesiReturn]

1. No need to be USC to work for US company in India. Lot of Indians for US based companies in India 2. Tax paying resident 3. Priorities are different for different people 4.There are quite few people who fall in that category for either retirement or for kids etc

[@Dinosaurtv2015]

I am Indian Canadian. Still I agree with your points. Make sense.

[@sreechandra8136]

Your points doesn't make any sense.

[@rnskfamily7672]

After ayodhya inauguration and bharat renaming I expect over 3 million Indians to return over next 3 yrs as layoffs rock western world and they all coordinate recession. Whiteman designed this for indians to return. I also expect foreign made products and services get more attractive for consumption in India. Deals will be signed in world trade organization and west will come to sell more products and services over next 3 - 5 yrs.

[@coolbreeze2213]

It is not all bad though. Standard of living in India is steadily increasing much like in China in the early nineties.

[@bharatikoni77]

I wish in future our Indian Govt should ban them to rerun back. People now a days always want profit in everything. Including personal life.

[@trust699]

If US ban…India go bankrupt

This channel should be retitled: Instead of Desi Return it should be 'When Upper caste Hindus decide to play Both sides'. Interesting how their last names have been withheld. Pure politics here. Because this is very clear in how they are talking. Last ten years in India has been hell for Muslims and Dalits and democracy in general. These guys live in lalaland. Of course why should they be involved in politics you will ask. But that is why India has been turned into a nightmare where only upper castes now have the life they want which is to get minorities screwed and dalits humiliated. How can you not mention the fact that India's culture and food has been turned Majoritarian by constantly gutting the constitution. These are typical of the people who would have said lets not speak against Hitler because that is politics and it does not matter what he does to the Jewish people becasue thats politics. Lets just eat our sambar and make sure that the kid gets a quality education. Life is just an idily away from Happiness. Pathetic upper caste insularity. But a good channel to expose this upper caste mind set. Thanks

[@Indicthoughts898]

Ok so let’s discuss this. Muslims and Dalits lives have gotten worse? Muslims Haj is cheaper, monopoly of vendors is removed from haj products, instant theen talak has been removed. More reservation has been brought in for backward classes, by digitizing direct payments are made to the downtrodden removing corruption, toilets have been made across the country etc. the only people not directly befitting are upper caste Hindus but when infrastructure is built all are benefited so they are also befitted. India is racing towards becoming 3rd biggest economy. Gadgari ji has done a fantastic job with infrastructure. So other than the ones who want to see India fail everyone has benefitted. You are spewing castist venom but aren’t we all supposed to remove caste discrimination? If you don’t adjust your mindset only you will suffer. The fact less opinions are only encouraged in echo chambers not the real world.

[@unnikrishnan-hi3ib]

@ladusingh..Who is in Lalaland...upper caste Hindus are struggling to get good education and job because of SC/ST.They are getting good jobs and admissions in good colleges with less marks. One of my student who studied day and night and got good marks 96% ddnt get admission in his favourite college / but his sc friend who got jst 54% gt admission in the same college .He asked us what s the point in working hard and studying ...when someone snatches ur opportunity without any hardwork

[@ladusingh2141]

@@Indicthoughts898 I dont normally respond to Andha Bhakts but since your facts are so hilarious let me just give you a couple of international stats on India . India is no longer considered to be even a democracy. The V-Dem institute for the first time ever lists it as an electoral autocracy. That is just for starters. Check out India's position on the Human rights index. 109 lower than several banana republics. As far as those toilets running without water, I have personally seen how they have cooked stats. Dont give us garbage. Muslims dont care for Haj, so even if cheaper. Who cares. You need to stop this communalism this hate that is spewed out regularly and killing of minorities with gau rakshaks and raping dalit women like at Hathras. Oh yes Yogi government killing people in encounters under police watch. Which friggin world you live in. Upper castes are losing their sanity with this Guju mafia. of Modani. Good you have exposed yourself as an upper caste hater of minorities and dalits and obcs. Shame on you.

[@mindguru22]

Wow you only know how to write but unfortunately you only know how to think parochially. You have no sense of reality and are used to parroting the lines of others and that to without any rationale thinking. Please stay safe and don’t blow up.

Why are you exposing yourself as biased, anti certain communities, bigoted anti national person
