I agree that, we share a lot of cultural roots with india, but it is also true that because of of the agressive influence of indian media in our culture, our own culture hasn't been able to develop in more fulfilling way, for example in the film industry, the reason why out film industry isn't where it should be is coz , we watch too many hindi movies, and our goals is to tell stories and make movies the way they do, instead of developing our own style and identity. thats my two cents
