Things to keep in mind while writing a south asian character-

(Since I'm a mixed south-north indian and a hindu-sikh I've mainly included details about indian-hindu characters(ill try to include more abt sikh characters aswell)tho ive tried to include as much info as I can abt other south asian countries aswell !also ,if you want,feel free to add more details in :)

And please forgive my grammar in some of these places XD

1.The most common one,of course being that south asia is not all india.countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri lanka,Bhutan etc exist to.

2.Religion tends to be a big part of many south asian people’s lives , and If not a big part of their life,than most south asians are atleast religious in one way or the other.Different religions are in majority in different regions of south asia.For example,Sri lanka is majority buddhist, mainly in the sinhalese majority while the tamil minority there is majority hindu. But it's more than valid if ur character is atheist to tho!

3.For indian characters specifically ,it's is important to know what state they are from and that state’s culture . For example,most (or almost all)tamil characters won't wear a salwar kameez.(if they do then mostly muslim tamils)(reminder;I'm talking about traditional wear. Yes a lot of Tamil's could wear a salwar kameez if they want but it is not the traditional dress of tamil nadu)

4.India itself is very diverse,so don't make every character hindu.in some regions one religion is more in the majority than the others.If you decide to make a christian-indian character ,than they usually are from south-west india and north-east india.

5.If you decide to make a hindu-indian character as maybe a marvel/dc oc or something , its best to do some research on hindu stories and history.trust me,it helps alot. If not a hindu character than do research on the folk tales of that characters region,as that can help to.

6.NOT EVERY INDIAN SPEAKS HINDI.INDIAN/HINDU ARE NOT LANGUAGES.istg please . All it takes is one search of your characters state and the states description almost always mentions the state’s official language.while some character from non Hindi speaking areas of the country, for example a malyalee person could know how to speak hindi (most probably by living somewhere like delhi),they would still talk in malayalam with family and stuff . Also a pakistani character and Hindi speaking indian can almost always communicate easily since since the most spoken language in Pakistan,Urdu is very similar to Hindi in sound(also a lot of indians,specifically muslim indian’s have urdu as their first language.)Also punjabi Pakistani's and Indian's don't have any problem in communication(the script they write punjabi in is different tho)Also since a lot of people from the north had their ancestors migrate from pakistan to india during partition regional languages of Pakistan such as sindhi,multani,balochi etc can be understood by some people of such descent living in India.And a bengali speaking indian and a Bangladeshi can communicate just as well.Nepali speaking indians and Nepali people can also communicate with each other.But when it comes to Sri Lankan tamil people their dialect is different than the one of indian tamilians,so their tamil is better understood by malyalees,but they can still communicate well enough with each other.afghan people speak pashto and dari.pashto is also understood by a small amount of ethnic pashtuns who live throughout the sub continent.People from the Maldives speak the language of dhivehi.

7.Indians overall have many festivals that all people of usually a certain community celebrate regardless of religion,caste,etc.For example ,the people in kerela celebrate onam.Infact in alot of the state’s people from a specific region have their on festivities.

8.Physical features vary from area to area of South Asia.So there is no definite“south asian“look.

9.Sikh’s don’t cut their hair , that’s why most Sikh women have long hair and most Sikh men wear turbans. Although some do, like my uncle from my mom’s side and my mom herself and etc. Though socially it's more acceptable for a sikh woman to cut her hair then a sikh man. But a load of times sikh immigrants do have to sadly cut their hair and take off their turbans in order to get jobs and all.

10.-And Hindu’s don’t eat beef.Most Sikh’s and overall all Indians tend to avoid beef to.a lot of Hindus are vegetarians due to religious beliefs. Tho mallus and some people from the north east for example usualy do eat beef(mainly the non hindus)

11.-For characters specially from south india(that to mainly kerala and tamil Nadu) the naming tradition that is used most commonly is that the child and wife use the father’s name as their last name. Though I've noticed that outside of their states atleast they tend to use their family names, but very rarely caste names.

12.- Believe it or not, in a show( I'm not sure about the name) a pakistani character had the name“shiv reddy“.pissed me of sm.yes pakistani hindus exist but if I havent already mentioned before,CERTAIN LAST NAMES BELONG TO CERTAIN AREAS. Reddy is an indian telugu hindu last name.please do your research.

13.-This applies to a good amount of north indians and just overall non south indians.south india is not one state.madras was the OLD name for Chennai, which is just one CITY in one state of south india.There are 5 states,6(and more) languages spoken. Please do not confuse those cultures.

14.-As for a good amount of non punjabis...please.punjabis are not all “balle-balle“ sikh people.please. And they're not all angry people looking for a fight either.

15.-Talking abt north india,I need to mention bollywood and how they stereotype.bombay aka the film city is in Maharashtra.yet they still stereotype Maharashtrians as poor people.gujjus are always the rich snobbish ppl.bengali ppl are sweet shy people and nepali people are Chinese. Goans are always english speaking drunkards or high attitude aunties.rajasthanis all have a heavy accent and are royalty and Uttar pradeshis-biharis are poor illiterate people. PLEASE STOP WITH THIS STEREOTYPICAL BULLSHIT ISTG. See,stereotypes exist because they are true, but only a part of the truth and over exaggerated asf.

16.-India does have a poverty issue but we are far from a third world country.most indians are middle class,that to is split in between lower middle class,middle middle class and upper middle class.and until or unless you live in a rural area casteism really isn't a problem.but remember,while casteism is illegal in indian law,it still affects people.it’s just a little less prevelant in big cities. While india is the farthest ahead in south asia atleast the rest of the countries are doing well for themselves as well.

17.-hindu culture specifically has so much lgbtqia+ stuff in it.but the fucking brit’s and Mughals ruined it. The only transgender festival of Asia is held in tamil nadu.seriously, I advise you do research of your own on it and you'll love it to!♥️

18.-Btw, hindi is a language,hindu religion. (had to add this again)Your character prolly from some place like madhya pradesh,bihar,Uttar pradesh,Delhi,uttarakhand or himachal pradesh if they are hindi speaking. Some people have the same confusion with malayalam. Malayalam is a language, malyalee’s are the people who speak it or at from kerala.

19.-talking about food.curry is a wide ass term.wdym by curry?fish curry,mutton curry or is it paneer curry?is it more creamy or not?do you eat it by itself,with rice,a paratha/parotta or all?like seriously stop with “curry“ ITS ANNOYINGGG.again food varries alot area by area.even in a specific area food varries. For example,Kerala-Tamil nadu sambar is damn spicy but sambar from karnataka and telugu states tends to be sweeter.also food from Karnataka is much milder in spice then food from Andhra,but still capable of burning the mouths of most non south asians 😍😘🥰.also,we tend to eat most of our food with hands(THE best way.)famous delicacies vary from country to country in south asia and area to area of india btw. And our food is not ’smelly’, it's FRAGRANT.

20.ok so ive in total had 2 specific segments dedicated to language and this is the third one.India,while having only 22 offical languages(again;i remind you,we do not have a national language)actually has like thousands of languages. Native people from even just one state can have different mother tongues(for example-three people who were born and raised in karnataka and have families that are native to the state could have the languages of kannada,tulu and kodava as their mother tongues).And again,dialects also differ.For example,Bombay hindi and the hindi of a person from Uttarakhand would be different, and so would Bangalore tamil and a Madurai native’s tamil.Also,let’s say a telugu person has been living in mumbai for a while,very rarely will they ever have an ’accent’ while speaking hindi or english.

21.so above i mentioned that alot of people from the north have had ancestors move in from pakistan during the partition(and vice versa for some Pakistani's).Similarly,a good amount of people from west bengal had their ancestors move in from bangladesh(and vice versa again,but unlike the north india-pakistan thing indian bong’s and bangladeshi people don’t exactly have that ’divide’).Adding this in specifically not only because of how important this is but it can give more depth to your characters if they are from any of these areas.

22.Every state has different art forms.be it dance,music or just art,every state has it different.India has 8 classical dances(bharatanatyam,kuchipudi, mohiniyattam,kathakali,oddisi,kathak, manipuri and sattriya) and has countless many more.Music also varies and so does art as i said above.

23.our culture is super feminist but fucked by the brits and mughals again. We had so many queens and princesses that fought wars and also many female warriors.In the ancient times women only wore single drape saris and didn’t cover their breasts because they were not seen as sexual,but infact as a sign of motherhood(and there forth strength).If they were covered,it was for support.

24.Most people know atleast 3+ languages and almost everyone knows 2 at the very least. Sometimes they can even understand(which can range from basic to great) some other languages. For eg.- my dad can speak english,hindi,telugu,konkani,tulu,punjabi,urdu and multani+ he can understand malayalam,kannada,sindhi and tamil well enough.

That's it(for now):) hope this can help.feel free to ask questions!+random songs from my playlist✨✨✨

(ps,check this post of mine out cause y not lol)

Salwar Kameez: A Timeless Outfit for Every Occasion

Salwar Kameez is a traditional outfit for women that originated in South Asia and is worn in countries like India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. The dress includes a long tunic top (kameez), loose-fitting pants (salwar), and a scarf or shawl (dupatta). It comes in various styles and designs ranging from simple and elegant to elaborate and heavily embroidered. If you want to purchase Salwar Kameez, there are many brands and designers that offer a variety of options, including Fabindia, Biba, W, and Manyavar, to name a few. However, Suti Vastra is a brand that specializes in high-quality Salwar Kameez with exquisite designs, premium fabrics, and attention to detail. They offer casual and formal Salwar Kameez in a wide range of colors, patterns, and styles to cater to your taste and budget.

The Salwar Kameez is a traditional outfit that has been worn by women in South Asia for centuries. It is a comfortable, elegant, and versatile attire that has become an integral part of South Asian fashion. The dress originated during the Mughal era, which was a period of great artistic and cultural influence in South Asia. Initially, it was worn by women in the Mughal court and was considered a symbol of royalty and elegance. Over time, it became popular among women of all classes and regions and evolved into a versatile and stylish outfit that is now worn by women worldwide.

There are different styles of Salwar Kameez available in the market.

Anarkali Suits

The Anarkali Salwar Kameez is a popular style that features a long, flowing tunic with a flared bottom that is reminiscent of the Mughal era. It is often paired with tight-fitting churidar pants and a dupatta.

Straight Suits

The Straight Cut Salwar Kameez, on the other hand, features a straight-cut tunic with no flare and is usually paired with loose-fitting salwar pants and a dupatta.

Palazzo Salwar Kameez is another style that features a tunic top paired with a wide-legged, loose-fitting pants called Palazzo, which is comfortable and trendy and can be worn for both casual and formal occasions and finally.

Pakistani Suits

the Pakistani Salwar Kameez is a popular style in Pakistan that features a long tunic top paired with loose-fitting shalwar pants. The tunic is often heavily embroidered or embellished with sequins, beads, or stones.

Salwar Kameez is typically made of comfortable and breathable fabrics like cotton, silk, chiffon, georgette, and crepe.

The choice of fabric depends on the occasion and the season. For casual wear, cotton and linen are preferred as they are comfortable and easy to maintain. For formal occasions, silk, chiffon, and georgette are preferred as they have a more luxurious look and feel.

There are many benefits to wearing Salwar Kameez. It is comfortable to wear and easy to move around in, making it ideal for women who are looking for an outfit that is both stylish and comfortable. It is also versatile and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. Salwar Kameez can be accessorized with jewelry, bags, and shoes to create a personalized look. For South Asian women living abroad, Salwar Kameez is a way to stay connected to their cultural roots and express their identity. Finally, Salwar Kameez provides a modest option for women who prefer to cover up their arms and legs, making it ideal for those who want to dress conservatively without compromising on style.

When it comes to styling Salwar Kameez, it is essential to choose the right fit that flatters your body type.

hi!! this may be super random so im very sorry for that 🙏 but you’re the only desi blog i follow (that i know of) and so i was hoping to ask: i’m invited to an indian friend’s wedding and the dress code is desi wedding attire (obviously not strictly, i can wear a regular dress if i want but i’ve been to desi weddings before and its never fun to come in a plain dress when everyone is decked out in a beautiful salwar kameez 😭😭) anyway, i was hoping to find something for the wedding but I know alot of people get stuff from back home or go to a local shop that sells it specifically and neither are an option for me unfortunately so I was going to try online and i was wondering if you’d know any websites/brands/etc that might be worth looking into??

again, so sorry if this is completely random!!

hiiii anon!!!!!

i usually always buy from back home in pakistan (sorry i just prefer pakistani wedding wear more than indian 🤷‍♀️), and my fave pakistani brands would be:

khaadi.

maria b

gul ahmed

house of faiza

but do try websites like:

studio by tcs

janan

shein sometimes do really nice stuff too!
