  there are chinese looking indian..theres a place in india called assam..where theres lots of mongoloids...
  
  all over india you can see so much diversity in not only religion, but race, and ethnicity. ive seen quite a few bengalis that look more chinese than indian for example.
  
  but indian media is slow to acknowledge them. all we see are people that look like us - the aryan/dravidian look. big eyes, brown skin, and big hook noses.

  they're indo-chinese and got the gurkha or thai look.
  since they live around and between the 2 sub-continents,
  convergence in looks and traits are common

  technically, they're in fact descendents of inter-racial marriages considering they stay along border

  There are some tamils who look better than anyone else. for example Aishwarya Rai is not a North Indian. She is tamil or sumthing.

  I love manisha Koirala's looks in the 90s , poster girl of Bollywood, she acted in some well known Indian films like Bombay. The demure, sweet looking girl now in her 30s and all grown up.

  Mansha Koirala has lost her popularity now with the onslaught of newer younger girls into Bollywood.
