no because they aren't trying to portray normal Indians. it's a crazed cult that the heroes bump into. I think people always forget that part. I know people often complain about the feast scene and talk about how most Hindus are vegetarians. The whole point is that feast is supposed to be an early clue that these Hindus are not normal.

Leans a little heavy on the "savage" tropes but tbqh it's so over the top I find it hard to frame it as them trying to depict real people/cultures

It's like saying the other movies depict all Europeans as Nazi treasure hunters.
