India (1953) 

'In many ways India has gone modern, In others she remains forever ancient' - This is still true today

India at that time was cleaner than today, with non existent traffic jams, Cleaner air, and a billion less people. I so wish we had a similar population still now🙁

Wow! Glad to see such a positive narration for a documentary of India of the olden days.

It was so natural,full of nature everywhere

Incredible India! Beautiful narration! Jai Hind!

Thing Which I noticed, people were not fat , they were fit

Sadly, many parts of India still remain the same as it were 70 years ago.

They could pronounce Agra properly in 1953 but not now? Smh

People were so obsessed with white colour clothing back then!

If India had a population of 400 million today, then it would be like the USA in terms of quality of life

So filming inside the Taj Mahal was not allowed even back then??

#ถ้าพวกเขายังมีชีวิตอยู่จะถามพวกเขาว่า ก่อนที่ทางนำจะมาสู่พวกท่าน"คือฉัน" ท่านได้ตั้งภาคีหรือปล่าว?

Crazy thing is lots of things remain true today also 😂

There obsession with snake charmers 😂 😂

Mighty Roman emperor 😂😂😂

With a billion population a the present rate of poverty India will never arrive to the high level of modern development. The sending in space of a space ship a smoke in the eye. Certainly higher level level scientists will benefit from the advancement of technology but the majority of the people remain at the lowest level as before because of untouchability-the bane of their society. The population increase negates all advancement they are making. The worst thing that happened to India is the abolition of the princely states. They are not a homogenous people and should have remained under the rules of the princes. I may be wrong and I hope so, but I don’t see a future for them before the end of this century. Over the tears I only so the population increasing from 400 million to over a billion.
