Delivery ho, street food ho, festivals ho ya social life, India ka vibe, warmth aur comfort kahin replicate hi nahi hota,” she wrote on Instagram, emphasising how deeply she feels the difference.She went on to reflect on the emotional experience of moving to the US in search of bigger opportunities. “Hum dreams chase karne nikalte hain … but silent streets aur scheduled friendships ke beech realise hota hai… There’s truly no place like India, yaar,” she added.Watch the video here:NRI Content Creator in US: “Living abroad hits different — silent streets, scheduled friendships… tab samajh aata hai ki India ka vibe, warmth & comfort kahin replicate nahi hota.”“Truly no place like India.” pic.twitter.com/RKqpG6BLG0— Megh Updates ™ (@MeghUpdates) December 9, 2025In her video, the woman also highlighted ultra-fast food delivery and the ease of reaching doctors back home.

The video is circulating across social media platforms, drawing a flurry of reactions.“US offers peace and structure, but India offers connection, belonging and real relationships that’s irreplaceable,” an X user wrote. “Praise for India as the layoffs kick in and the dollar value shoots up! This is just the beginning. People will flock to India very soon and bring the same complaints with them, but this time questioning services in India. Good for India,” another user commented.“One can enjoy living in India either they have good money or have any close friend or relative at very senior government position to clear out any hurdle faced in any government process, otherwise silent streets and scheduled friendships is the best luxury,” a third user reacted. © IE Online Media Services Pvt LtdTags:nrisocial media virals
