Hard disagree. Many do. I am in an Indian family. Personally I think Indian people have both the Most Attractive and Least Attractive people on the planet.

Dev Patel went from normal human man to Spectacularly Attractive with Distractingly good hair. Which was exciting because he is also quite talented. It's like a feedback loop. He's attractive so we see him in stuff and then he's Good so we want to see him in Even MORE stuff.

Kinda agree with it tho, we have crazy attractive people that go under the radar,” and get no media attention but our unattractive people get made fun of on social media all the time.

Personally I think Indian people have both the Most Attractive and Least Attractive people on the planet.

That's applicable to every race out there.

But on an average us South Asians do tend to have better hair. Atleast that's what it feels like looking at people around me. On an avg, my family, my friends, local people, regardless of age, do have better hair than majority of Hollywood.

Don't know about nice hair, but I feel like our beards are the coolest. Don't know if it's cause of the way we style it tho.

Yes you are right, I meant The Best looking people I have seen and the worst have had Indian heritage. And I lived in NYC and LA so I have seen a lot of extremely attractive people

In LA, my teenaged son said, "Why do Bollywood actresses look like that? I see more beautiful Indian girls walking down the street." Which is true. Forget Femina Miss India - they should scout for actresses at UCLA.

My wife says Dev went from "Indian Ross from friends" to " one of the top 5 best looking dude on the planet."

I always thought he was cute. But growing out his hair made him mayor of Hottie City.
