See again that's my point. See if you ask me this question about Modi. Some people praise him. Some people criticize him. But I can definitely answer that more people praise him than people who criticize him. If you all me the same question about rahul gandhi. Now he also has a considerable fan following. But I can definitely say that more people criticize him than praise him.
So you are still not answering a question clearly, which should be very easy to answer. What am I supposed to think?
Btw I think in the top ten searched items in Pakistan, 2-3 are Indian tv shows.
I think Pakistani Islam is influenced by the deobandi and barelvi schools, which are in India. Need I say more.
Regarding physical appearance and race, from my own experience the average Pakistani I know is brown. And I'm much fairer than the most fair Pakistani I know also. I'm practically white, but I'm not the only one. There's a lot of people in my family friends who are very fair. It's virtually impossible to distinguish between south Asians. Between Pakistani, Indian, Bangladeshi, Sri Lankan, I don't think anyone can demarcate them to specific countries. As a case in point, look at your cricket team, and how many of them you cannot be anything apart from Pakistani. Like shoib malik, there would be hundreds of look alikes of him in India.
Dunno what kind of race segregation are you attempting, it's just not possible.
If your language, religion, looks, tv content, movies etc has connections to India, I dunno how you guys are going to break that. All the best, but it's not logical, and all illogical things die their own natural death. A shared heritage of millennia cannot be discarded. People are not fools. Regarding trade links, it has nothing to do with culture. Never has, never will.
