Yes. Very dark.

The girl on the bottom looks indian, not the top 2.

All the 3 kids look very lively! Is that how an average khmer kid looks like?

If so, khmer folks look good! I don't know how they would turn out if they grow old, but right now really good looking kids.

These kids naturally not that dark they are overbaked themself in the sun.

I think the 2nd boy and the 3rd girl can easily pass off as Indian to others.

Maybe the girl in the 2nd photo. The kids in the first photo look pretty much like East Asians with dark skin.

same

The boy could be.. and the girl in the 2nd pic too

Exactly. Another vote from me!

I agree... but if the 1st girl said she was Indian, I'd believe her aswell. I've already seen a few Bengalis and Tamils with that kind of look.

Yeah, I would definitely believe her too. But, would the average non-Indian in the West believe her or easily tell that she was "full" Indian? I just think the other two could easily get away with it more to a lot of people, especially the last girl.

the first two can never pass as indian in any sense of the word.........but being tamil myself i would agree that the 2nd pic has a tamil or srilankan look.......but im not sure whether its the way that photo is taken.........it seems a bit weird....

So, do you guys think this lady can't pass for Indian either? Even when she IS more Indian than any of those kids.

they got indian hair and indian skin but their facial features dont look indian

damn .........is she a nepalese most of the nepali women wear saris and have bindis..........

actually speaking even the girl in the 2nd pic looks very much cambodian or even indonesian.........hmmmmm yeah she doesn't look indian.....

here is the link for the picture........http://www.marsh-agency.co.uk/

nah i dont think they got indian hair .......they got very very straight hair........ ........but the skin colour part is correct.........

maybe something li

LOL, that woman is Shakuntala Devi! You have never heard of her? She's Indian, alright. I hope you do know that there are some Indians that look like that, without having any immediate mongoloid blood.


What do you mean by "Indian hair?" Indians are notoriously known for having stick-straight hair. But, some Indians can also have curly/wavy hair.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakuntala_Devi


Shakuntala Devi (Born 4 November 1939 in Bangalore, India) is an Indian mathematician often referred to as a "human calculator". She came from a Brahmin family in Bangalore, but over the years her father had done a variety of circus acts. Her abilities were first noticed at age 3 when she began doing her father's card tricks, he had his own touring magic show by then, by memorizing in order all 52 cards. When she was six she demonstrated her calculating and memorization talents at the University of Mysore. At the age of eight, she thrilled the learned audience of Annamalai University by doing the same


No Nepalese mentioned there.......

This kid is also a full-blooded Indian with no immediate Mongoloid blood:

^ Such a cute kid!!



Lol, my first thought was that she could pass of as Indonesian.

What about these 2 khmer apsara dancers?

The girl in the first picture could, but not the second one. But regardless both these girls look unindian to me.

.

india is so diverse that these people could fit in somewhere in the northeast(manipur etc.) and maybe even central india.

Yea the Indian look is somehow non-mongoloid even with Vedda features. Those deep-socketed eyes are just too hard to imitate.

deep-socketed eyes?

I think those two girls could pass of as Indian.
The second girl looks a bit like my aunt.

I personally have never seen Indians that look like that.

The first one could pass as an Afghani, as I have seen one that looks very similar to her named Gulie (?) on the show NEXT on MTV.

They look Indian to me, but that's because I have been exposed to Indians with this look. They look more Indian than the Nepalese-looking Indian lady I met yesterday.

The ones who don't say that they look Indian probably aren't used to seeing Indians that look like that.

I agree. All the Khmers posted in this thread could pass off as Indian, simply because of the fact that Indians are too diverse. They do look Indian to me (especially North-East Indian)... but don't have the so-called "common" Indian look that most of us are familiar with. Either way, they at least look more Indian than these full-blooded Indians:

The first one could pass off as a Filipino to me. I've seen a lot that look like that.

The second one is hard to tell since it's a baby. My Paki friend said that a lot of Pakis look Chinese when they are kids and that his family made fun of him when he was smaller because he looked Chinese.

no not really i dont think these people look indian..........

dont know what u mean by "not exposed to that kind of indians"........we aren't
hiding indians

indians look indians they dont look chinese/african.......countries like burma or thailand are near north east india like orissa or chennai but the people in these indian cities look indian they dont look chinese ......

the top picture: no
the bottom: possibly yes

For the most part it's the eye-socket, nasal, brow area that determines this. The girl at the bottoms looks like she's got substantially socketed eyes and if you look at her nose-bridge and brow region it's 1 piece rather than a pushed in broken nose-bridge. But if you look at some of the more Veddoid Indians they do have that pushed in nose region going on just like most mongoloids. So it the deep-socketed eyes with the fully refined eye-lid region that makes an Indian really look Indian.

LOL. For all the people that who that I was "trolling" in the Cambodian thread, now you guys know what it's like when other Desis don't believe that my bf is fully Indian.

What about her?

None of the above will pass for what could be considered a mainstream indian looks.

IMO, Not even.

i heard that in srok khmer, the hot weather regular temperture that 98 degree is like a regular day which is really hot in the sun..i guess they really did overkbaked themself in the sun 2 much.
