Isn't the difference obvious...

Salam all,

I was having an argument with a friend of mine (another pakistani) about how there is a distinct difference between pakistanis and indians (specifially, a muslim and a hindu). He was saying that you can’t tell the difference; that in general they look the same. I disagree(d). I think one can definitley tell a difference between a pakistani and an indian.

what are your thoughts

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

indians are darker :D

on a serious note...their accent is a big giveaway!

Re: Isn’t the difference obvious…

not all r darker :cb:
& there r many who resemble pakistanis…i no some of them…who i thought were pakistanis :blush: …but turned out to be indians…

…but it is generally said tht pakistani guys r better looking than indian guys & indian girls r better looking than pakistani girls..:rolleyes:

& well about the accent…not much can be said 'cause those who hv lived in the same neighbourhood all their life speak almost the same…the accent thing is only applicable to those who hv lived all their life in india…
i say this 'cause i’ve got pakistani & indian frendz…well i don’t find much of a differrence…
then it could also be 'cause the indians i know r from north india …so they normally speak urdu rather than hindi…:slight_smile:

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

You need a discerning eye. You can tell a Pakistani from an Indian even on an online board. Appearances can be deceptive though..

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

Pakistanis are defintiley lighter skinned. I say Pakistanis girls are way better looking but its not apparent since most cover themselves.

Also, we can't forget the ladies from NWFP.

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

Umm sara i think Paki girls look much much better than indian girlz
I know this guy..he always say that i wish i could go to Pakistan and marry sumone frm thre..cuz he thinks Paki girls look pretty than IndianS
Wont disagree bout the guyz comment u gave..thats truE!


For me i can sumtimes tell diff between them..but sumtimes i get it wrong
N sumtimes i even get confused between Mexican, Pakistani and HinduS!

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

This has to be the 'dumb-est' comment I have heard in a long time.

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

Mr Anil Khan ---- Are you Anil or are you Khan ?...if u know what I mean.

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

I hope you are not suggesting that lighter-skinned = better looking?
If so, then according your suggestion south india is overrun by ugly women, which is so not true.

Some of them are petite, modest, have beautiful skin and eyes with matching intellect that can put your average north indian/pakis to shame.

So, yes, indians are different from us. They are generally smarter than us.

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

Hi Anil Khan,

You can't really tell an Indian from a Pakistani...fair or dark does not even matter because there are both on both sides... people with all kinds of features exist in both countries...cmon the whites are the whitest and the blacks are the blackest....we're just in between and to the blacks and whites we all look the same. A few degrees of shade variation does not figure.

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

there are 27some (physically speaking) types of regions in india, and about 20 in pakistan ..

so REALLY u cant compare the rajhistani with a sindhi kisaan ..or a pathan with rajput..

and get over it already you guys STILL stuck at this indopak?

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...


look at the wife, if she wears, hijaab, dupatta, burqa, or nikkah...then muslim

if she in sari, with appearant belly flesh and a red tikka in the middle of the front then hindu

but the problem with sikh is its better to look at the guy...sardar ji:D

Re: Isn’t the difference obvious…

^^ but this won’t lead you far sas there are as many muslims in india than in pakistan :rotfl:

serious note: you can’t differentiate an indian punjabi from a pakistani punjabi, apart from religion linked dress codes…and punjabis are the majority in pak…

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

yes I agree

all pakistanis look exactly the same... the ones from the north west frontier look exactly like the the people from western paks

and all the Indians from the north to the southern tip look exactly the same...

If you take two of thse specimans and place them side to side the differences will be evident

especially to a person from deepest darkest Africa

actually scrub that

to someone from deepest darkets africa...you all look the same
doesnt matter whether you are Muslim, sikh or hindu

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

totally agreed .. with NIki ..

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

I think it's quite easy to tell the difference between a Pakistani and an India solely from the facial features. However, yes, Pakistani's are generally more fairer than Indians.

Re: Isn’t the difference obvious…

pakistanis were indians b4 :halo:

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

anil underneatht this skin of ours we are all the same.. and will go towards the samw place :~)

Re: Isn’t the difference obvious…

Yes, but that is irrelavent. For example, if you go to different regions in Africa, people will look different, but they are still all “Africans”.

Re: Isn't the difference obvious...

how can you say that

all africans regardless of colour are black
and all have curly hair

and ALL look the same....:p
