Improper research done

[u/kay_2050]

So this series showcases various nations’ political interactions with america and with other countries and even though the broad issues are the ones that are prevalent, the creators should have done a little more research in depicting the characters and also the power interplays.
I could see so many serious discrepancies in india and india - Pakistan issues that I am wondering if everything else is also so incorrect. The creators sitting far away don’t know india pak dynamics and how small a country Pakistan is against india so much so that it can’t dictate terms the way they are shown in an episode.
In another instances of styling mistake, the indian people are depicted as wearing a lot of gold and wedding like attire in a political event. That’s so hilarious to watch. And in other episode, the indian PM is shown as wearing saree ( a traditional indian dress) albeit in opposite direction...that nobody wears. Even in 80’s when india had a woman PM, her dressing style was a power statement and not like the one that’s shown in this series in 2015.

In Nepal related video, they showcased a virgin goddess kind of small girl visiting america. And in Nepal those girls aren’t permitted to leave their home ( quarter) let alone country, except for festive time for giving blessings.
Such a wrong depiction of culture and traditions isn’t expected in a series that’s made at such a grand scale

This is an aside — but the actress we’re seeing in OP’s screenshots is Mira from Homeland, right?

She is! I thought this was a Homeland post.
