India is a land of rich cultural diversity, with some culture always having a higher appeal than the rest in each cultural element, and therefore dominating in that area. It's most visible in popular music, cuisine and clothing of the times. Over the last couple of decades, Punjabi forms have clearly dominated, at least in these three areas; Punjabi has emerged as a clear winner. The western culture has only been able to scratch our surface. I guess it's a healthy process of cultural diffusion and development of a more culturally rich India. Although India has for a millennium been a land of diverse cultures, it never saw movement, mixing and marriage of people of the kind we see now.
