| Criteria | Score | Notes | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Authenticity** | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Best when local voices are centered. Drops when filtered through a Western "exotic" lens. | | **Production Quality** | ⭐⭐⭐ | Wide range—top creators have cinema-level shots; amateurs suffer from bad audio in noisy streets. | | **Educational Value** | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | High potential, but often misses the "why" behind the "what." | | **Avoiding Stereotypes** | ⭐⭐ | Most content still relies on elephants, spices, and arranged marriage tropes. | | **Regional Representation** | ⭐⭐ | Heavily tilted toward North India (Delhi, Rajasthan, Varanasi). South, East, and Northeast are under-represented. |
