“I Fell in Love with a Black Woman” | Indian Parents Reaction  

I'm a black women born in the Caribbean and I'm married to a Sri lankan tamil man. We are Christians. His family has embrace me from day 1. We are now 10 years married with 3 kids. And i love my mother in law.

I'm West African, Native American, and Asian decent. I'm here for the Love God sends💜

Caste, class and colorism is ingrained in both the cultures of Black (African) and Indian histories. If anything you BOTH have more in common than you lack. I've express to you both on your IG profile how uplifting you both are to share your stories and experiences. As someone that is open to a diverse relationship it gives me hope that people can find and be successful in opening their minds and hearts to others that don't always look like themselves but love deeper than what a mirror can project.

I absolutely admire you both for being so authentic and transparent when it comes to all issues. The way your husband dotes on you and how your wife carries herself personifies black girl magic. Many blessings to you both and your beautiful baby girl ✌️❤️

My fiancé is Indian & I am black. I had this same thought getting into the relationship, but he reassured me that since they’re Christian & not Hindu and that his family were perfectly fine with him choosing whoever he wanted.

LOVE this .I am an Indian who is an huge admirer of Indian and black women .Women of color are amazing. Hope to see many more videos from you both .DIVERSITY makes d world vibrant,

I love your positive energy. It's refreshing watching mixed cultures have so much love, acceptance, and patience. I enjoy watching you both learning from each other. It gives me hope for peace and love for all families. You both are super awesome.

Your family is coooooooool ! Progressive Evolved Enlightened You both are Blessed !

I'm American and as I was about to fly to Dubai to meet my now husband (who is Nigerian) after 3mo of video chats, I remember someone saying "your crazy to go... He will trade for you for cattle" when I told someone there that it was said, they replied "that's a compliment... Cattle is worth alot here!" 😂

Im Indian guy and i have a black wife guess what my parents st first were stand off but once they got to know her they love her more i feel like then me. Beside we have amzing mixed kids who look exotic and got great body unlike mine lol

Caribbean Asian Indians are more evolved. They regularly marry Caribbean Black People. Glad this is working out.

You guys are such an cute couple. I pray God continue to bless and keep your family in love, peace, happiness.

I am so glad I found this video. I am a melanated woman that is falling in love with an Indian man. He’s very attracted to me and really likes me but seems to be scared and worried about the racial differences. I want to better understand the issues and get whatever information I can to help facilitate a relationship, I really want this to work out with him.

I am West Indian living in the US for most of my life, My father disowned me when I was pregnant with my son his father is black American, unfortunately he turned out to be a horrible person and I ended up being a single parent and had to be both mom and dad but I have my son. One of my aunts told me I messed up our family by having a black child. It’s unfortunate that we go through this but I’m glad that your families were accepting of each other. My son is now 26 years old and I’m not saying this because he’s my son but he is so handsome 😄 You’re a beautiful couple, God bless you both. 🙏🏼❤️

This is so nice to watch. I just saw an Indian girl who was disowned by her parents because she married a black man. That got me doing research on racism in India. It’s scary stuff, they even discriminate their own people. You are truly lucky.

Nice of them as interracial relationship. I am the same as I am Bangladeshi in love with black African lady.

The way he looks at her ❤❤

Well as a Jamaican, technically you're both the same color, only different cultures. My dad looked more like your husband. Its the culture thats always the challenge

Love from India 🙏🥰

Time is changing... World is shrinking...

This is humans at their finest. You have no idea how strong them kids about to be both mentally and physically. Best COMBO, you have a life full of happiness waiting for you.

Good choice your wife is beautiful 💕 your is 💯 Indian looking you got the best of both worlds 👍

You guys are so adorable together

I have seen black men and women shaming Indian people. I have seen Indian people shaming Black people for being ugly. You both taught a lesson to both sides by basing your marriage purely on love rather stereotypes. I feel happy for both of you.

Indian and black is beautiful

So inspiring to see you guys share this ❤️🖤

Both of you are lovely❤. I lost count of the number of times you said ‘black’. How does it matter? The quicker people understand that ‘there’s red coloured liquid’ below the skin, the better! Speaking for my self, I wouldn’t give this aspect a thought. Tons of love to you lovely guys from India (Mumbai)🇮🇳🥂❤️

I’m Indian American you guys are beautiful couple, I wish you nothing but success.

Love you guys. And Aniket parents are the exception. Most Indian parents want their kids to marry Indian or white.

I follow you on tik tok and I have wondered about this and even forced my hubs to watch and have given him scenarios so I’m happy you made this video bc I’m nosey 😂 I am Mexican and husband is Indian. We met at grad school and he didn’t understand the concept of ‘dating’ either. His parents aren’t for ‘love marriage’ bc ‘it never works out’ they say. But They were quite pleased that I’m fair and have the ‘Indian look’. They are very open in admitting that they accept son marrying outside his race rather than lower caste. I am first generation American born and parents being the opposite of ‘Americanized’ I can say that our traditional family values, dynamics, and gender roles are very similar so I raise eyebrow at his parents the same way I do at mine. But I can not imagine how frustrating it would be for a ‘westernized’ women to integrate and to deal with such point of views. And I don’t think it’s so much of color as it is culture (although colorism is a big deal for a lot of brown cultures/ minorities ofc). So very happy to hear that you have a good experience with in laws and your hubby is very lucky to have understanding parents that are supporting him even if his marriage is not what society finds ‘acceptable’. After 6 yrs of marriage We found that the key for interracial marriage is not so much understanding as it is accepting/ tolerating 😂 best of luck ❤

They look so happy ❤

Majority Indian are black and brown when people will understand 😅

Love from India, beautiful couple Jai shri ram.

You guy's are an inspiration! Beautiful I'm extremely happy for you guys.

Funny thing i found out in my ancestry is so called blacks a.k.a American Indians have been mixing with people from India in our southern states, etc. before the 1800's.

Your video made my soul happy. God bless you and your family.

Awesome!! So proud of you guys!❤

Love has no boundaries, you are a beautiful couple and let you’re love shine in every thing you both do, God bless you both 🔥❤️

You guys are the cutest couple and i appreciate your honesty and sharing your experiences.

Love ❤ from India ❤ 🇮🇳 my dear friends beautiful couple 💑 ❤

You both look great 😊😊🤩🤩🤩

Thank goodness your families are accepting. I’m aware of more than one couple who are African American and East Indian. Good luck guys

Your subtitle is incorrect. You fell in love with a women who is black beauty.

Hey my loves so the issue at hand wasn’t even an issue love this video!!! And from the gate I knew this wouldn’t be an issue myself bc for a few reasons if you date South Asians typically the issues they have is religion, culture, cast, money and education differences it’s what determines wealth and advancement in the Indian Culture even among the East /West Indian cultures to be forthright. In all honesty if you’re on par with these areas then there isn’t an issue is how their society thinks. Colorism is the biggest issue among my people (Indians whether from East, West and South). I can speak to this because it’s one of the issues I had in my own upbringing for many years. I suffered identity issues and still sometimes do let’s chat more offline on that topic. But to get back on track I love you both and ultimately although family is very important knowing that you both were willing to hold on to each other and God is what will grow your new family unit outside of the extended family because your new legacy is what will dictate your future as the New Karne family. Love you both loads…😘😘😘 sorry for the long rant.

And y’all almost the same color ❤

So good for you bro, getting african genes in blood line is always great

Lovely couple😀

I am Indian. The thing is its not just India. The marriage system in Asia is very complicated. There is a saying that in asia two people don't marry each other, its 2 or more families merging. I had females who loved me and still didn't went for me because they were asked to date or marry within their cast, religion, community or even state. Its very taxing on our mind. Furthermore the standards for groom and bride is very high. Unrealistic expectations. Asia struggles alot with customs and culture. Not saying west is better but just an asian dude explaining issues of asia. 🇮🇳❤️

I am confused! Doesn't his DNA say African-related? My Indian coworker said that Indian people have African heritage too. They are not African or American, but the relationship is there.

I'm so happy for both of you and love that your family sounds like they are open minded. In most cases that is not the case. 💞

Keep the love going

Greetings this was my first time viewing your video and I truly enjoyed it. I subscribed so I can support you. I understand why you wanted your husband to make sure that his parents knew you were black because sadly it does make a difference in some cultures. I have a lot of Indian friends. The majority of them are open when accepting other races. Others are more traditional. I know a young man who is black and his girlfriend was Indian. This summer after graduation, He was heartbroken, because her parents made her break off the relationship. Take care and I wish you all the best in life.

Listen .. My wife and I have been married for over 18 years and I am African-American and she is Punjabi. Of course there were differences but we embrace that. I enjoy everything about her food clothing music language etc as well as she enjoys me. But absolutely we have had our share of comments mainly from her cultural people . But once people got to know me they were no longer fearful. However, comments are still made negatively about Black people.

Do you have any advice for a couple who’s parents had the opposite reaction (more negative) to a black woman.

Good luck guys on your life journey - happiness is the most important thing.

I’m carribean indo (grandma is East Indian, Hispanic, and white born in Jamaica) and multiracial and my husband is carribean indo and full East Indian he’s also born in Jamaica. His mom had a problem with me even though her husband is a full black man and very dark skinned it was odd. My experience has always been East Indians being against marrying black people. So I love to see this. In Jamaica it’s usually less of an issue but my mother in law was different I guess. Do most Indian people prefer to marry Caucasian/white if they marry outside their race?

Cute couple

My friend dated 2 guys at 2 different times from India. Both said that they could not be seen with her, let alone marry her because she was Black. So she just stopped dating Indian men altogether. Sad. I have to share this video with her now. There's so much colorism in the U.S. and other parts of the world. But to see this...this is really cool. Thanks for this upload.

That’s great about your family’s acceptance! I am wondering that since the wife is light skinned is she more accepted?

As a black woman dating, how can I make myself available or open to being approached by Indian men? I have been online dating but would there be any way to achieve this in-person as well? I did some research culturally and you and other have mentioned religion plays a role as well as the caste system, especially if they are lighter skinned Indians. They do no want a darker woman to darken the skin tone of their children. It’s never said but I feel like it has been implied by Indian friends that I have had in the past.

Woow..She is so nice..

I have practice 5 religions including Hinduism and Islam settled on Islam. I would love to be with an Indian, Sri Lankan, Nepalese or Bangladesh man. But if THEIR family has an issue that sucks for them because I'm awesome I can speak some Hindi was learning Sanskrit and fluent in Spanish and English. Please stop degreasing people because of skin hair and nationality!!!!!!

We had Indian neighbors and my family are people of color, we all were called "black" in North Carolina when I was a child and upwards. Our cultures and religions can differ but the history of how we were treated as people is similar, in some cases it was the same. It is 2024, not much has changed in regard to how other lighter skin tone groups view our people groups with a good degree of melanin.

Beautiful people ❤️❤️❤️

It’s great that his family trusted him to make a decision. I have a Indian friend that marriage was arranged in India and there was concern of her husband’s complexion. Her husband is darker. I told her colorism is in our culture too and it shouldn’t be. As MLK stated, we should be more concerned about the content of their character. My one question is - are there concerns about your children knowing India customs and/or keeping traditions?

So what black, red, orange, blue as long both parties love each other.

Why everyone act surprised when dating black with another race and not the other way around? how about her black parents reaction to her dating outside her race. I'm so tired of people acting like we are inferior to other race. We are all one race. Human. And black people stop acting like you need to accepted by another race, that's why they treat us like that.

You both are a beautiful couple enjoy you life to the fullest!

Mix of awesome genetics!!! I won't be surprised if the kid is good at studies, chess, athletics, weightlifting all at the same time:)

Your family is so liberal, it is so refreshing to hear.

I'm African American and I would like to marry an Indian but could you advise me how meet and date an Indian. Thanks. You guys are great

Interesting your skin tones are all the same😂😂😂

Wife is wife any countery all respect his wife any country women wife us wife two soul in one wey

Lol. I thought he was black until I heard him speak!

First of all, in many parts of India communities and weather conditions make people more "black" than the "blackest" people around Kilimanjaro mountains, near Victoria falls or in the deepest jungle of Kenya. So when an Indian says "black", what he/she actual means is "from Africa or Jamaica??". It's more like telling "man, you married a lady who belongs to a culture that we know nothing about; how would she adjust and we would adjust to different culture/language/customs". For heaven's sake, in this context, let's not try to give it a very different connotation. So what do we do about it - well, simple, African (yes, black) customs/culture have a hell lot of knowledge and sense of bonding hidden in them, just go, learn and embrace them. And, yes I missed the extraordinary recipes and motifs

What's the name of your wife. Also say your wife is beautiful

I hope he knows he's not white. She is of african race and he's Indian.

People neeeds to go all over youtube and search and ask yourselves, why do i keep seeing black women with other south asians and middle eastern men than women?

Where in India is your husband from?

Love watching you both

This Women actually have the same skin tone as you. The term Black is enforce on American born African. Most of this so Called Black , were descendent of African, that lives in America for four to five generations. But they were programmed to disown, their African root. In African Continent we have 2.5 Millions Indian, living in African Continent, many were brought by British to Work as laborers, even as Slave too. But this Indian have lives in African Continent for five to seven generations, still their soul never left India. That is power of holding on Identity. Which I admire and cherish about Indian. Every big City in East Africa, in Nairobi,Dar es Salaam, Uganda, Rwanda you will find Hindu Temple

Saw so lovely to watch ❤❤❤❤

I see no difference in this couple. Same color😮

Do he got a brother or cousin? Lol

We're Israelites! Yeshua created 18 nations and none are labeled as a color. Caucasian people labeled people by a color. NOT BLACK!

What is your country? He is from India and you are from Black?

I am african American and married a pakistan. We never dealt with the family we never told them.

i love indian🧕🏻 girl's too no comment 🤗😊👍👍💖💝

This is why I do not use the word black - these are two melanated people of different cultures - Afro & Indo melanated.

New subbie here. Your video came up on my feed. Thanks for your open discussion.

What about "woman of color"? I understand Spanish but don't speak it so well. I had someone interpret for me once. I began my sentence with, "As a black woman..." My interpreter said, in Spanish, "As a woman of color..." I started to call her out but it wasn't worth it. "Negra" (or Negro for a man) is the word. Though I guess the word does not work well in English. She spoke English, too, so...

New subscriber May 20, 2024, because you fell in love with a SISTA (Sister) 😂😂

Well honestly I would wonder what they would say, the both of you look the same. Only thing I could think of is traditions, and people from different cultures marry all the time and blend their cultures, so I’m puzzled why they would feel funny when their son is in the US, and would meet his bride in the US, and more than likely she wouldn’t be Indian.

Why does she have on a men’s black wedding band? 😂

You married another person that's all there is to it.

❤❤so happy differences are your assets

This race and colour issue is awful, be happy and trust in god ,their are lots of people in India who is the same colour as his wife.love him ❤❤❤😊

This was beautiful to hear. My question is, are there religious differences between you two? If so, how do you manage it?

you're both black in my eyes

Off the top from seeing the thumbnail photo of y’all…I thought he was also Black.
