no and most indians will get annoyed if you call them asian


That is absolutely false. Americans are the only ones who seem to not understand that India is indeed in Asia. Contrary to popular belief Asia is NOT just China and Japan.

Pretty much. I live in an area where Punjabi Indians are the second biggest demographic after white people and there are many times "South Asian" comes up as a descriptor. Nobody is bothered.

What's amusing is that the American census considers Indians as Asians as well afaik. So seems odd that so many Americans seem to think they aren't.
