They are part of us lost their way when Ghaznavi took them as part of his loot and later freed them. Let’s consciously with open arms welcome them into our country and give them place and honour to live a life of dignity and respect they deserve.
You are part of India just as much as I am. Mother India was, is and will always be your home ❤️🇮🇳. We need to expand financial, educational and employment support for all Roma/Sinti/Boyash communities.
this guy is stupid , he is pro british imperialism , go look what he said about the queen . The British colonized and enslaved india for 400 years and he walks around and blames turkish people , what a fucking idiotic rumor . Roma are in Europe since more than 1000 years , Turkey only exists since 1923 and the "Ottoman" Empire was founded in 1299 , and India was not Part of "Ottoman" Empire , so how does that make sense to anybody with a honest heart ?
As a Roma who born in Eastern Europe wanna say thank you very much my Indian brother for making awareness about our people .. godbless your good heart and give you long life with health happiness.. ❤ 🙏
As an Indian, I'll always love Roma. Don't fall for Western propaganda that Roma's were low castes or anything. They were average normal Indians who were forced to migrate either due to survival or economic situations. They just choose the wrong place to go. That too they were forced by the Turks and Mongols as slaves of war, a concept unknown to the refined and developed Ancient India. Roma's are ancient India disapora.
I’m Romani and live in America. My tribe is Kalderash from Romania. I was raised not to tell Americans who I was and to not interact with others because they hated us. It’s so nice to see people accepting Roma into their lives. I would love to see a video of our people here in America.
Hey Michelle! Thank you for sharing a bit about yourself. I would love to tell stories of Roma people in the US. Please connect with me on insta @abhinavrevis. You can also join my patreon that enables me to travel and tell more stories. Thanks so much :)

Im from Mauritius and our foreparents came from India bihar/UP in the late 1800's from the East India company(british raj) to work as indentured labourers in the sugarcane fields and remained here. We are the 6-7th generation & we do speak broken bhojpuri and hindi aswell. Life has not been fair to us in the pass but atleast we have control in the future. JAI JAI SHREE RAM🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩
Your name "Dhan"/ धन in Sanskrit means wealth/prosperity. Love from Mithila "Land of mata Janki/Sita". Btw I am also from Bihar and my mother tongue is Maithili and I know Bhojpuri and Hindi too. Stay Blessed may Shri Ram bless you.

@Amit Kumar they are a menace here in Europe. They steal CONSTANTLY and are violent too and will gang up on you and intimidate you. God knows what has happened to make them like this.

As an Indian I thank you Mr, for telling us about ROMA community, how unfortunate we haven't been taught about this at school , anyway I wish them better and healthy life ..... ♥️♥️ From 🇮🇳
I had no idea Roma people were originally from India. Once in a long while I would come across some information about them and I would think that these people have some habits of Indians but I never really knew. Thanks to Abhinav now I know. I'm from Guyana and there's a large Indian diaspora here. Thanks again, Abhi.
Be proud of your roots sister... You are part of us "INDIANS"... the real ones The only non white democracy to become a defacto superpower in just 75 yrs of Independence... Every year from now on...stature of Indians is growing rapidly and yours too.😌🥹🥹🙏🙏🙏
I had no idea about this up until last year. Abhijit Chawda has actually played a very significant part in talking about these not so common facts. Thanks to you sir for making such a beautiful video. They are our people.❤️🇮🇳🙏🏻
Yeah, I released the first video about them in 2018 on Facebook. They were shared a lot so I don’t know if Abhijit Chawda watched them or not. Thank you for the support 🙏🏽
I'm from Kerala State .India and keep on studying about the Roma 6 years .I could find that The Roma are part of Indian people.As you pointed out in the Title They are our long lost Brothers and sisters.J am extending my heartfelt loving and best wishes for all the Roma in the Europe and worldvide

I always knew we had Indian roots .. most Indian people know exact what I am the second they see me even though I'm light skinned . and always tell me my people come from India .. love the videos brother God bless
I’m Native American and married to an Indian. As a lover of WWII history, I discovered that these people are Indian descendants and told my husband who never knew this. God bless you all! ❤❤❤❤
I know in my heart that when Bharat regains the lost glory, we will take care of them... Till then, Love to our Roma Indians from the motherland. Vande Mataram.
India is becoming richer again, I hope in few years, we will provide ROMA people right to return to their original land. Love you all my Roma brothers.
I think we should provide them the good opportunity to live where they are now, Coming to India now will be not good for them. There culture, language, food, climate conditions all are different now. It will be difficult for them to adjust in India. They will still feel outsiders here. I don't think many romani will like to come to India now.
@@rahulj.005 it’s now we to decide they want to come or not. Let them decide. Life in India is comparatively difficult than in Europe. But we won’t let them feel outsiders that is for sure. That’s our culture.
@@chintakgurjar8426 Let them decide. ofcourse it's going to be their choice whenever if Indian govt. Permit that but saying here they are going to live a better life it's just exaggeration. Just couple thousand of people on internet saying we accept them doesn't mean that millions of Indians going to accept them because in the end they are going to be migrants here too and India already had a migrants problem. 99% of them will we either Muslim or Christian(I may be wrong in stats, so correct me if), do you think Indians going to accept them when we were not even accepting Muslim migrants from neighbouring countries like Rohingyas. Just think about it man, things are not that easy. They can come to India anytime they can, Indians are going to greet them happily but staying permanently is a different thing.
Thank you Abhinav my father is Roma/Spanish and their family is very much into the Flamenco scene. You should check out the similarities in vocals Andalusian flamenco has to Indian music. Just something fun for you to check out. I was born and raised in US by my mother's family so unfortunately some of the treatment of women is still lacking. However at least my brother and I have broken the cycle. I'm 4.1% Pakistani/northern Indian according to 23 & me and 11.9 Western Asian/North African so your info about Romani, Turk slaves was very interesting and I hope someday India will allow us back to have a normal life and culture. I've seen and lived first hand the devastation the separation has done to the community.
Very interesting your story n I'm glad to knew about to you As an Indian I'm very keen n eager About to know about Roma/Gypsi/ Banjara/ Dom people from North n North Western Part of Indian subcontinent which they were lived 1200 to 1000 year ago..i think In my opinion World would have been recognise as what you people have been struggling n Hard working for their Survival as They recognised forJews Around the world ...yoy r my Blood n flesh...
@analisaMartin - I spent 4 years in Malaga Andalusia and have many friends from the gitano community. People are scared of them and have negative stereotypes but I always felt comfortable with them.
We indians call your land as Bharat Mata, meaning Mother Bharat, and for a mother , she always has love for her children how much ever far they are from her..... so know that Bharat Mata is always loving you and blessing you , she is and always remain your spiritual home :)
This is the best Documentary on TH-cam honestly man! I too grew up with very humble friends from India as growing up in London from 10 years old I felt more welcomed by my Asian friends more than White Europeans :/ and I am proud to be from Roma community from Czech Republic! GOD bless you for showing the actual good people you clearly saw even they were not richest but , they still offered first and last like we are taught from young age! WE NEED MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS ON TH-cam! My Grandfather would love this Documentary if he would still be alive 😕😞 videos like this make me inspired to make my own documentary on where I was born Karvina (Czech Republic)..
Hey! Thanks so much for your generous comment and love. I would love to learn more about you and see if we can produce something together. Bless you! Abs :)
Half roma here. This reminds me so much of my childhood. This is exactly how my grandmother and the whole village there and my father used to live. A very simple life. Growing their own food and having lots of animals. Own chickens, pigs, horses and so on. And yes, they always invite everyone for drinks and food or even will kill a pig for you to celebrate and eat.
We are not Roma but my parents here in Puerto Rico were born and raised very poor and they’d do the same thing. Grow their own food, raise chickens, pigs, cows for milk, and share food with rest of family and visitors.
Few suggestions : 1. You can provide them with some online sources to get to know more about India, its culture, its current situation, and a lot more. 2. You can visit the Indian embassy in the country and interview the staff there about Roma people. If they happen to not know much about Roma people, you can provide them with some resources to create awareness about these long-lost Indians. It may even attract the attention of the current Indian government.
Your motherland India officially recognises u as Indians only,even sushma swaraj ji had meetings n seminars for that,with our Romani communities,some time back....ur our love dears....n u people r not orphan,ur mother country is India n we r ur family.,u have a long history...ur one of us....wish to see u people settle back here soon n spread ur age old culture,arts,dance,u will find it similar in rajasthan,haryana,Punjab areas,were ur ancestors used to be ,centuries back....lots of love from ur brother from ur country India......God bless each one of you ❤️

As an Indian, I didn't know about Roma community till now because i had never read about this community in our school text books except islamic invasion and british colonial era but thanks to you big bro i came to know about our people. I had known about Indian people who were taken to Africa, Mauritius, Fiji as slaves and as bonded labours by britishers. But as an individual i believe it is our responsibility to know about our long lost Indian brothers and sisters. May god bless them . ❤️🙏 Edit:- If any Roma people is reading this comment i want to tell you that never feel ashamed about your background or your roots because you belong to one of the oldest civilizations that is India (Bharat) that stood strong against all the odds and protected its culture, heritage, people and country which is still striving and thriving.
С Любовью к вам наши братья и сестры с России русско Рома ( цы цыгане) 🇷🇺 Очень благодарна вам за ваш ком . Я в Восторге .. Мы Рома рассеяны на всех континентах Индийский народ 🇳🇪. Нам долгое время не говорили кто мы ? .. Сейчас мы, знаем что мы Индийский народ потерянная Родина Индия. земля наших предков . Мы Рома давно ждем когда наши братья Индийцы протянут нам братское взаимное отношение взаимно понимание в дружбе и ролстве наших корней,. Мы Рома гордимся своими Индийскими корнями . Мы сохранили свою культуру и законы на чужих землях пронесли через тысячелетие свой язык предков Санскрит ... Любовь вам с России 🇷🇺 от русско РОМА..( цыгане )
That’s when Roma people get separated from India during the Islamic invasion of India .. more accurately Roma was part of the Rajput military as soldiers and servants they were ruling over Punjab to Rajasthan for over 500 years but when the ghaznavi’s came there they destroyed our military killed our king and mass murdered millions and also it was them who taken Roma people out of India 🇮🇳 as prisoners of war (slaves) back to Afghanistan 🇦🇫 ..
Can’t thank you enough for showing solidarity and for offering us visibility. It’s rare that someone talks about us without stereotyping or saying racist things. There are a lot of Roma who deny their identity and when i say a lot , i mean a LOT and it is heartbreaking. Our history about Chattel Slavery in what is now Romania is never acknowledged & it was the longest to ever be registered on planet earth. We’ve been denied our history, most Roma don’t even know the history of their own ancestors. All groups who have had a similar history to us have been dehumanized with the same stereotypes that have been used against us for centuries yet racism towards us is so painfully normalized that it’s shocking when someone actually sees us as more than just the sum up of all of those stereotypes. Sending lots of love to India 🇮🇳
I feel like it’s a difficult situation bc if you have lived amongst Roma ppls (I lived in a mostly Roma neighborhood in Bulgaria for 8 months) you have probably had some bad experiences because of it. For sure there are plenty of good Roma people as individuals (as in every culture) but the culture as a whole has some pretty dark issues and tend to bring those issues to the larger community they are surrounded by.
You’re very right my brother .. I’m a Roma born in Hungary and my entire cast had to leave our language and our culture everything that we had because a Hungarian queen called Maria terezia order to cut our tongue out taken our children away hanging us from trees or nailed to trees by our ears and then burned for just saying 1 word in our Roma language for just practicing our culture or just dressing to our culture and laws this was in the 18th century and ever since then my entire cast called Romungro become strangers to our own customs language and everything that had to do with us ! .. and Many of us unknowingly runs away from the Roma language culture or anything has to do with Roma it’s because to this day they sacred because our groups were tortured the most in Hungary and the funny thing is majority of our groups were entertainers musicians that’s how we made our daily breads yet they did these satanic things to us ! And if any other groups of people it could’ve been an ethnic Hungarian helped just one Roma person or even a child he’s entire family were arrested killed front of the public ..
this guy is stupid , he is pro british imperialism , go look what he said about the queen . The British colonized and enslaved india for 400 years and he walks around and blames turkish people , what a fucking idiotic rumor . Roma are in Europe since more than 1000 years , Turkey only exists since 1923 and the "Ottoman" Empire was founded in 1299 , and India was not Part of "Ottoman" Empire , so how does that make sense to anybody with a honest heart ?
Abhijit Chavda in his podcast told about many Roma people who were very popular but did not reveal it because of the fear of the atrocities of the Westerners. Very sad and tragic. But we assure, when India rises every persecuted community will rise 🙏🏻❤️

I was very sad to see the part where the two guys didn't want to be known as Roma. I have Romani heritage from my father's side, Irish from my mother's side of my family. I spent my first 18 years from birth in horse drawn wagon or vardo travelling. Speaking some amount of a European Roma dialect. I love that about myself. My father is much darker skinned than myself if which I've always been jealous as I got my mums whiter than white tone, lol. I was raised experiencing great prejudice against myself also, but didn't let it take away who I am. I also learned to accept others more and they will accept for who you are also.
Thank you so much for your comment and sharing a bit about yourself. It’s always wonderful to meet more Romanis. Let’s connect on insta @abhinavrevis. Would love to learn more from you. Also, watch out for my next production about the Swedish Romas :)
How is it you grew up among Roma and you cannot comprehend why the guys denied being Roma two guy J strangers pull up from nowhere asking about Roma they could have been haters looking for a Roma to do harm to they could have been policemen looking to arrest some roma from the village surely it was better to act stupid I don't know anything and get these monkeys off your back they was watching out for themselves
I have seen Romanichal people (English Roma, a few of them actually also have say they have Irish ancestry, is this common with Roma there do they intermarry with Irish or/and Irish Travellers quite a lot ?
I'm British Pakistani , and I love seeing this connection between our people. I know there is much tension between us, but I love seeing the diaspora and journeys our people took. I read that Roma people most likely came from northern India, which today would also include some of North Pakistan. Great job on this, can't wait to watch more of your content. :)
if newspapers, news channels and all online news reports were bannned for an year ( just for fun), most of the so called tensions around the world will cease to exist very quickly. It's all in the media. It's all in media filled head.

Your friend did get a few things wrong. They do want real jobs and education we just don't want to be forced to abandon our culture and that's what every nation we've moved to has tried to do. I can put you in touch with a lot of educated Roma (Romani is better in includes all our Vista/tribes) who can help you learn a lot more. Most gadjo (outsiders) have a lot of misconceptions about us and while not necessarily trying to get it wrong they do.
Dear Theodora, I am Dani, Abhinav friend and I was part of a minority community for 17 years in western society. When I come back home I really want to help and improve as much as possible their lives , specially when I see how hard they work. We built a little school and put a Roma teacher for them to learn basic education. We build a little church so they can worship as they enjoy. But in the end I understand that, they will only be happy as they are and I think would be bad if we try to force them to live differently. Please correct me if I am wrong. 😊
You have lost a lot in America, there is very little of Romanipen over there and there is too much lost. Most Roma would not recognise an American as Roma. Not truly. Also, there is no Romani Vista, it is Vitsa. Kon mengrel tu kernel tumendar roburen socha phanela tumen o chachimos pa tumare perintonde.
So true .. when we lived in Hungary Eastern Europe in my family and not just in family the majority of us lived middle class and some wealthy life’s .. unfortunately they don’t want to show those .. so for many Europeans when they hear gypsy first thing that comes to their minds is somebody who’s sit on the streets begging for money or a dirty primitive thieves 😂 .. it get to the point in Hungary when a non gypsy stab somebody or steals something they say gypsy crime and they go and protest enough of gypsy crime 😂 .. yes we have those no question about it but the ones whose normal they say you are not a gypsy they told me that many times when I told them I’m a gypsy they told me your not because you don’t beg or steal or stab people ! So for them for many gypsy is somebody who begs steals not working living in conditions like in the 1 at century with out washrooms running water bathrooms don’t have nothing .. so yeah a gypsy only can be dirty primitive criminals .. and our normal human beings they say well he’s not gypsy 😂😢 .. so it’s an unfortunate situation.. it is what it is .. I would never ever change my race even if I could ❤ 🙏 ..
Dear Abhinav, thank you so much for great work you are doing, painstakingly travelling to meet our separated brothers and sisters the lovely Roma people. I got tears of union in my eyes when I saw their response to you in the video. They are very dignified and self respecting people like Indians are despite what life throws at us like mariyada purushotam Shri Ram.
You’re very welcome and thank you so much for your sweet message. I really really appreciate all the support I am receiving. Please help me in sharing this with the world. I shall continue to travel and tell their stories. They need us 💪🏽

Hi I Am Bernard from Germany And I Have a suggestion The ROMA FROM NORD MACEDONIA ARE WITH ONLY COMMUNITY WITH ROMA MAYER AND THINK ROMA FROM SHUTKA KNOW BETTER THE ROMA HISTORY ! SO SUGESTION NORD MACEDONIA SKOPJE SHUTKA !!!!!!
Hi man !! You are doing great work, Isn't there any NGO working to uplift them? ISCKON has a big presence in Eastern Europe, atleast they should help them to integrate with the mainstream while preserving their unique identity & culture.
You're comment is spot on. We have to utilize ISCKON to help the Roma. It will also help if the Indian MEA and Embassies reach out to the Roma and create a special OCI card for them to allow for travel and immigration to Bharat.

Hello very nice Video 👍🏽 its so beautiful to see that you are interested in Roma people as an Indian. Because many Indian people don't know about Roma and even less about us Sinti. But I have to say one Thing its not true that we dont want to change।
Thank you so much! I would love to know more about your thoughts on this. Can you please connect with me on insta @abhinavrevis. Thank you very much :)
Thank you so much for sharing this information with the world. I am half Roma on my mothers side. She passed away when I was very young and learning more about my people brings me so much joy. Thank you for sharing these beautiful videos♥️
Namaste Romani people, from your long-lost cousins in India. Bharat Ma (Mother India/The Motherland) always waits with open arms for all of us, no matter how long it has been since we left, so please do visit.
as a person of roma descent seeing is so beautiful I never grew up around the culture because of most of my roma are gone or are really old and dont associate their identities anymore cause we live in a mostly british city so it's nice to see the culture and people. Love to all Roma brothers and sisters and india brothers and sister love to all
Are you saying you are Roma but you lost your Roma identity then you lost your language your culture your heritage and so on that means you became guy Jay it's plural it means people who are not of the Roma race
Actually I'm curious and little bit worried about Romani people in Ukraine because of current situation. In a vlog , I've seen them already suffering very bad there. You should try to know about their current life if you can.
Everyone is suffering in Ukraine at the moment, regardless of their origin, but the situation was not better before the war. Because the previous Ukrainian government curtailed the rights of minorities, the victims of which were both Hungarian and Russian, but especially the Gypsy/Roma communities. Minority cultures and languages were banned, schools were closed, people were dismissed from their offices. One of the most extreme cases are stories of people being tied to trees and beaten to death. Roma or people of Roma origin were also doused with paint, stripped naked, tied to trees and left to freeze to death in the winter cold. I am writing this so that people in India know how some countries treat these people. It's something to be ashamed of. That's why I want people all over the world, including India, to learn about the real situation of Roma people, which doesn't seem romantic at all. And for those people who suffered serious and permanent physical or mental injuries or died during these atrocities, no amount of money can restore their health and life. I want people in India to know this too. Regardless of whether they wander in any of the deserts or live their daily lives in the cities.
So let me put my thoughts 😅😅😅:- Indians and stereotypes are always together for Westerners. See bro, even this Roma people are living there for ages but are not considered as an respected citizen of there country. They have to hide their identities, so sad. It is so sad that they are not getting the basic needs as like the other common citizen of the country. It doesn't matter that they forgot or don't agree that there ancestors were Indians but the thing which matter is there right and equality as an citizen whichever country they are living. I will pray for them to Mahadev🙏🏻😔🙏🏻.
Hi, really they have a lot of financial benefits and the local authorities are trying to give them more power to change their lives but as I said to other people, they only enjoy this complete freedom and not rules. Sometimes I get jealous about that, but really this is how they choose to live and they are proud to live this way 😊
Are you Roma if you are or if you are not can I ask you this question when did you ever see this guy putting shoes on the feet of a little Roma girl who didn't have any shoes what government has he approached to fight for the rights of Roma how many Roma children have eaten of the food that he's applied for them do you want me to go on all he's doing is spreading misinformation claiming that Roma are from India and the drama are Indians nothing could be further from the truth there is a word in the Romani language guy J it's plural it literally means any and all people who are not of the Roma race they are considered as guy Jay not our people Indians are by no means any exception to that rule hard work he's doing like he helped to build some houses for Roma who don't have any by the way I am Roma from America there is no such thing as poverty for Roma in America by all means the opposite
Oh man i have tear in my eyes to see all this really .....love you bro and thankyou to share all this and i want to visit once in my life for sure......
About Roma community ,I came to know recently from Abhijit Chabra Sir podcast,,I searched for Roma people and found this video on top ,, Feeling can't be expressed in words ,,l pray for long and better life for our indian community 👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

@DEVANAND BISHNOi this is not true , the point is , India was created by the British , it was never ever one Country , they put different people into this National Project , Mughals were always seperate and Hindus were people from the South , India is Huge there are so many different people , even in the tiniest European countries there are differences but you hindu zionists are telling me that there was a united Hindu India thousands of years ago , which is absurd , what we call India today is a social experiment , Ancient India we talk about has more to do with Sasanians and Mughals not Hindus , the People who spread this ancient hindu India and Vedas stuff know exactly what the truth is but they prefer the lie because it benefits them in financial terms . Trust me we never ever did anything to Roma , we didn't enslave them neither were there concentration camps , there were many famous Roma "Ottomans " they worked for this country and they were not seen as different people , this guy said himself they treated everybody equally but not the roma ? do you really believe this nonsense ? everybody was the same , There were East Asian , South Asian , Caucasian , Anatolian , European , African , middle Eastern Pashas and Sultans and Vesir . Everybody had the Chance to become Someone , Turkishness is a modern and sometimes misleading Term , It was about being a Muslim not being a Race , look at turkey today there are so many different ethnic groups , the only thing that keeps us togheter is Nationality and Religion not a pseudo tribal Race which existed thousands of years ago , we have many Politicians of Roma Heritage or Mixed , for example Ibrahim Kalin . Dont listen to modern day Nationalists they are all Freemasonic and they work for London , "Ottomans " never enslaved anyone , it was a kind of USA back in time .
@DEVANAND BISHNOi this is bullshit and typical anglicized masonic hinduism , India was never a country , the british created this artificial nation . The Muslims didn't Invade , they were the local population of the north , Hindus are the tamils of south , many of them migrated to the north and mixed .
You’re very welcome! I love my dear Roma community and I will continue to give them the voice they deserve. Please share and thank you for your sweet comment ❤️ We are one ☝🏾
Wow, it's a heartfelt beautifully made documentary. Abhinav has such a deep connection with the Roma. Of late, I had been looking at Roma videos on TH-cam, and this video so vividly captures how the Roma are like. Thanks for your efforts.
Got to know about the Indian origin of Romas and Sintis when i was 12(24 now). Watched a lots of videos about their lifestyle and history. Always had a desire to meet them and try to relate. Thanks for making this Abhinav.
Bro collect all documentary. Come to india and visit any film director from south indian industry or bollywood. Ask them to direct film. Only this will create mass awareness not onky inn india but worldwide among such such people to know their original roots. Jay hind🇮🇳🇮🇳
I'm enjoying your documentary. I've always been curious about where Roma people came from. I hope you make a documentary on women who work as tarot/ palm readings.
I also had a lot of prejudice against the Romani people, but one day I read an interview about an older Romani woman who sold hand knitted wool clothing on the street in my town and she told about the abuse she were the victim of by people harassing her. So the next time I saw her I bought some wool socks, glows and had a conversation with her and she was a wondeful lady. that was the beggining of me changing my views on the Romani people.
Love back to you bro! I will continue to tell their stories. I am planning more trips very soon to meet more Roma people. Please share this as much as you can. I want every Indian to know about our dear Roma brothers and sisters. Thank you so much :)
Thanks Abhinav for this eye opening upload, love our long lost separated people from india. Salute to you for going there and bringing this awesome vlog. Love from Australia 🇦🇺 🙏👍
You’re very welcome and thank you so much for your sweet comment. I don’t want it to stop here. I would love to be able to tell such stories from around the world. Thanks for all the support and love. Keep sharing ❤️
this guy is stupid , he is pro british imperialism , go look what he said about the queen . The British colonized and enslaved india for 400 years and he walks around and blames turkish people , what a fucking idiotic rumor . Roma are in Europe since more than 1000 years , Turkey only exists since 1923 and the "Ottoman" Empire was founded in 1299 , and India was not Part of "Ottoman" Empire , so how does that make sense to anybody with a honest heart ?
@@ercanqa7452 So called Moghuls called themselves Turks. Yes Turks or EX Huns converted to Islam and expanded Islamic empire all over Asia. 10 th and 11 th century empire builders of India were of Turkish origin. Babur though Moghull emphasized his Turkish origin. He detested the Moghul label. It was the Turks or Muslims who called themselves Turks committed unspeakable attrocities against people of India. Till this date Amy Muslim invader of past in india is called Turk! Though it’s wrong to call them all Turks. Some were Gulam or slaves of Turks but equally brutal! Don’t disown Turkish heritage because Turkish invaders looted india! We all know Ottoman came later but they were not humanitarian either! Staunch follower of Islam . Ataturk Kamal Pasha imposed modernity by force otherwise Turks wanted to follow true Islam ! And under Erdogan they do! All the best!
@@mikesheth5370 so called "Mughals" ? Show me the document where any Mughal called himself a Turk , this is historically not correct , Nationalism is a European invention , turkishness is not a Invading Race , it is about being a Muslim , "Ottomans" and "Mughals" never called themself Turks or persians or what ever , they were simply Muslims , Nationalism did not exist in those times , but it seems people have a really hard time to understand things .
I can't explain properly how i feel after seeing the video. I feel a part of everything. Happy to see descendants of our mother india, sad too see their sufferings and prejudices towards them, guilty to have not known about this beautiful community till today. I hope this video goes viral and people get aware about our brothers abroad. 🙏
Hi Harshita! That’s exactly how I felt when I first met them in Ukraine in 2018. Please share these videos with as many people as possible in India. I have dedicated this channel to help out our Roma brothers and sisters. Thank you :)
What a lovely video. I saw Romans at Moscow. I was scared of then. Thank you for this lovely video. Humans beings. How prejudices distant ourselves from human beings. Thank you.
@@Acharjya96 Nothing is being forced. DNA evidence confirms that most Roma people are descendants of Bharat. No is forcing anything. Stop being a hater.

It is an awesome job that you are reaching out to the Roma people. I wish we could sponsor one or a few handworking young people from the Roma people to return to India, the home of their roots...to experience the culture of their past. I bet if more of the Roma returned to India to visit, they would have pride in who they were. The Roma from Romania and Eastern Europe have more Indian DNA.
Thank you so much, Dan! I have plans to bring a few with me to India maybe next year. Feel free to join my Patreon to enable me to tell more of such stories :)
Thank you dear by portraying them (Roma people - lost Indian brothers & sisters) to us in India . Love ❤️ and respect to them from deep down my heart . Great work dear . Carry on .
🌟Brother, first of all thank you for what you have said and done for our Romani brothers. I always wanted an Indian to connect with them and you did that and also did all those small but big things, like you called them all Indians, yours ❤️ these are the things that touched the heart and you are every Romani and Indian Touching the heart of You are a Lone Warrior and we all Indians are with you. Thank you again and again, and lots of love and salute to all the Romani Indian brothers and sisters.
Brothers and sisters, u r part of us, indians, u r us . Also u have the sharpest minds, the greatest potential to excel in anything as u have indian blood in u so, u have the potential to acheive anything u desire.
All the time when I was watching your video my face was in a big smile. This is the first time I saw your video and also to get to know about the Roma community i.e our people. Keep doing the good work.
At last! I was allways hoping somebody will make this connection. I hope for the next steps too...How wonderfull it will be to teach Roma children about their ancestry. Give them a touch of flavour of India. It will be so beneficial.
Roma people are said to be rajputs of King Prathviraj Chouhan and with others from Rajasthan and north India migrated to Europe and spred to many parts of world. There language matches with Sanskrit local uttar Bharat and Rajasthani Local language.they our brothers and sisters we should support them
@@anonymous-ds4ix most, most of India's problems are related to its economy and thanks to our current government we are now the fifth largest economy in the world and progressing at a tremendous speed. Unlike European countries we have values it's our tradition to help people when they need . We helped Jews and Zoroastrians when they are not from our land . We helped Tibetans when we don't have enough of anything then it's only logical to help people who are from our land that's why we want to help them...
First do sth for nomads in India. people from same community u will find in every traffic light of Delhi Begging.. The look exactly same like Europian Roma's ..fair colour ..diff eye colour. cheek bones are prominent and sharp noses
I know I have a lot of comments I apologize, as a Roma activist who daily speaks to other Romani (Roma is just on of several groups like Sinti, Kalo and so forth) I get very excited when I see people trying to learn and educate others about who we are and the history. Romania in particular knowing that Roma were enslaved for over 500 years and that the slavery went away last with the government and churches many Roma there are only 2nd or 3rd generation born outside slavery. Romania had segregation in school and Roma were all treated as "unteachable", the jobs they offer are the same as the ones they enslaved the ancestors to do and don't give firm opportunities at education and social advancement on an equal footing. That is why they don't integrate into the society where economics are concerned well. Other than that we say integration not assimilation and every country has tried to separate us from our culture, even the U.S. antigypsyism is a global systemic issue. You don't see us everywhere because we have learned not to tell people our race or we get treated poorly, always comes down to being a G*psy, a slur very literally invented for our people. I appreciate what you're doing and can't wait to see more. I can again put you in touch with educated Romani in places you travel who can take you to the mahalas who can help you better understand on your travels just let me know or you can look at rhe people on my Instagram @anyatheodora1 for the Roma NGOs and activism network. Also lots of information I post the global news on Romani as I find it you'll see why we still hide in many areas if you look.
@@amangupta-ll3rs Why ? India is not a rich country for now at least and don't forget we have already a massive population. We should support and help them.
@@amangupta-ll3rs Yes we are poor but I didn't mean that. The actual thing is , even though they are suffering still they have better education system and opportunity in their country than our own country. Our country already suffers Job-less-ness , Reservation in Jobs and all that. We can take care of them after India become developed but not now.
Thank you for your love and respect towards roma people it was very nise and touching watching this video I can fill the love from your side stay safe my brother
One way to revive their respect and value they deserve is to have Indian business communities establishing business in their places.... bridging the gaps .... empowering them more and more .. infrastructure, assets, money, political offices, entertainment industry etc... Roma people can also come, live and expand businesses in India ..... Let's unite !!!!
Indian business communities, empowering local people!? An intriguing concept to say the least. They have been in Africa for generations now and own most almost everything. Give them a chance and all the Roma won't own even the horse shoes.
@@aaraar4055 Didn't get you mate.... I am trying to convey a more mutually empowering strategy... Roma people have to come to India and establish big businesses as well.... who knows? may be cultural dishes.... dance practices classes, language institutes , exports etc... Because Indians have been doing that around the world and exercising soft power and cultural highlights... like Indian restaurants around the globe.... more and more recognition..... textiles and spices.... indian classical music institutes.... high political officers ..... scientific contribution to joint research... academia etc... We can try that for Roma people as well... may be a highlight of their lifestyles in textbook... or they Indian film industry !! There's no particular road map.....
It is true Roma love horses but the Roma who are a higher class than these people consider horses something of the past I'm not mocking these people for I am Roma and they are still my people rich or poor as far as Roma being great Warriors from India it's just not true Roma are not the so-called gypsies of Rajasthan two different people being referred to as Gypsy does not make nobody Roma Roma literally means our people example America was at War for the past 20 years or more you know how many Roma's fought for America and there's over a million Roma in America not one because Roma are more for themselves and their family they will not give up their family or lives to fight a war for any country they try to avoid it in other words draft Dodgers and or conscientious objectors
I came to know about this in March, 2023. Romani people journey is so fascinating. They have seen tough times. they are all over the world. Best of luck 🙏🙏🙏. They are not Lost Indians anymore.
It feels so sad yo see our long lost Indian brothers and aisters are living such a difficult lives outside India. They were forced to leave india due to Turkic and muslim invaders. There language has still many Hindi/sanskrit words... I as an Indian wpuld love to welcome them back to India...

As an Indian, I'll always love Roma. Don't fall for Western propaganda that Roma's were low castes or anything. They were average normal Indians who were forced to migrate either due to survival or economic situations. They just choose the wrong place to go. That too they were forced by the Turks and Mongols as slaves of war, a concept unknown to the refined and developed Ancient India.
Roma's are ancient India disapora.

I think we should provide them the good opportunity to live where they are now, Coming to India now will be not good for them. There culture, language, food, climate conditions all are different now. It will be difficult for them to adjust in India. They will still feel outsiders here. I don't think many romani will like to come to India now.
@@rahulj.005 it’s now we to decide they want to come or not. Let them decide. Life in India is comparatively difficult than in Europe. But we won’t let them feel outsiders that is for sure. That’s our culture.
@@chintakgurjar8426 Let them decide. ofcourse it's going to be their choice whenever if Indian govt. Permit that but saying here they are going to live a better life it's just exaggeration. Just couple thousand of people on internet saying we accept them doesn't mean that millions of Indians going to accept them because in the end they are going to be migrants here too and India already had a migrants problem. 99% of them will we either Muslim or Christian(I may be wrong in stats, so correct me if), do you think Indians going to accept them when we were not even accepting Muslim migrants from neighbouring countries like Rohingyas. Just think about it man, things are not that easy. They can come to India anytime they can, Indians are going to greet them happily but staying permanently is a different thing.
They're deliberately accepted Islam or Christianity
Not by will
Thank you Abhinav my father is Roma/Spanish and their family is very much into the Flamenco scene. You should check out the similarities in vocals Andalusian flamenco has to Indian music. Just something fun for you to check out. I was born and raised in US by my mother's family so unfortunately some of the treatment of women is still lacking. However at least my brother and I have broken the cycle. I'm 4.1% Pakistani/northern Indian according to 23 & me and 11.9 Western Asian/North African so your info about Romani, Turk slaves was very interesting and I hope someday India will allow us back to have a normal life and culture. I've seen and lived first hand the devastation the separation has done to the community.

Half roma here. This reminds me so much of my childhood. This is exactly how my grandmother and the whole village there and my father used to live. A very simple life. Growing their own food and having lots of animals. Own chickens, pigs, horses and so on.
And yes, they always invite everyone for drinks and food or even will kill a pig for you to celebrate and eat.

We are not Roma but my parents here in Puerto Rico were born and raised very poor and they’d do the same thing. Grow their own food, raise chickens, pigs, cows for milk, and share food with rest of family and visitors.
If you ever visit India we will do the same for you. 😊🙏
half what
Few suggestions :
1. You can provide them with some online sources to get to know more about India, its culture, its current situation, and a lot more.
2. You can visit the Indian embassy in the country and interview the staff there about Roma people. If they happen to not know much about Roma people, you can provide them with some resources to create awareness about these long-lost Indians. It may even attract the attention of the current Indian government.
Good suggestions
@@Music_Soul_Arjun thankyou 🙏🏻

As an Indian, I didn't know about Roma community till now because i had never read about this community in our school text books except islamic invasion and british colonial era but thanks to you big bro i came to know about our people. I had known about Indian people who were taken to Africa, Mauritius, Fiji as slaves and as bonded labours by britishers. But as an individual i believe it is our responsibility to know about our long lost Indian brothers and sisters. May god bless them . ❤️🙏
Edit:- If any Roma people is reading this comment i want to tell you that never feel ashamed about your background or your roots because you belong to one of the oldest civilizations that is India (Bharat) that stood strong against all the odds and protected its culture, heritage, people and country which is still striving and thriving.

That’s when Roma people get separated from India during the Islamic invasion of India .. more accurately Roma was part of the Rajput military as soldiers and servants they were ruling over Punjab to Rajasthan for over 500 years but when the ghaznavi’s came there they destroyed our military killed our king and mass murdered millions and also it was them who taken Roma people out of India 🇮🇳 as prisoners of war (slaves) back to Afghanistan 🇦🇫 ..
Can’t thank you enough for showing solidarity and for offering us visibility. It’s rare that someone talks about us without stereotyping or saying racist things.
There are a lot of Roma who deny their identity and when i say a lot , i mean a LOT and it is heartbreaking. Our history about Chattel Slavery in what is now Romania is never acknowledged & it was the longest to ever be registered on planet earth. We’ve been denied our history, most Roma don’t even know the history of their own ancestors. All groups who have had a similar history to us have been dehumanized with the same stereotypes that have been used against us for centuries yet racism towards us is so painfully normalized that it’s shocking when someone actually sees us as more than just the sum up of all of those stereotypes. Sending lots of love to India 🇮🇳
Don't worry brother believe in God and good deeds. Work hard to educate your kids and find some indian friends.❤
hmm its so heart wrenching lots of love and respect to our Roma peoples❤❤❤❤❤❤ from India
I feel like it’s a difficult situation bc if you have lived amongst Roma ppls (I lived in a mostly Roma neighborhood in Bulgaria for 8 months) you have probably had some bad experiences because of it. For sure there are plenty of good Roma people as individuals (as in every culture) but the culture as a whole has some pretty dark issues and tend to bring those issues to the larger community they are surrounded by.
gipsy can be easily identified by its stench
You’re very right my brother .. I’m a Roma born in Hungary and my entire cast had to leave our language and our culture everything that we had because a Hungarian queen called Maria terezia order to cut our tongue out taken our children away hanging us from trees or nailed to trees by our ears and then burned for just saying 1 word in our Roma language for just practicing our culture or just dressing to our culture and laws this was in the 18th century and ever since then my entire cast called Romungro become strangers to our own customs language and everything that had to do with us ! .. and Many of us unknowingly runs away from the Roma language culture or anything has to do with Roma it’s because to this day they sacred because our groups were tortured the most in Hungary and the funny thing is majority of our groups were entertainers musicians that’s how we made our daily breads yet they did these satanic things to us ! And if any other groups of people it could’ve been an ethnic Hungarian helped just one Roma person or even a child he’s entire family were arrested killed front of the public ..
Thanks a lot for creating awareness among Indian people regarding Roma people.
Good health and prosperity to Roma people ❤️
You’re very welcome. Let’s continue yo raise awareness by sharing this video in India. I want everyone in India to know about them :)
this guy is stupid , he is pro british imperialism , go look what he said about the queen . The British colonized and enslaved india for 400 years and he walks around and blames turkish people , what a fucking idiotic rumor . Roma are in Europe since more than 1000 years , Turkey only exists since 1923 and the "Ottoman" Empire was founded in 1299 , and India was not Part of "Ottoman" Empire , so how does that make sense to anybody with a honest heart ?
Abhijit Chavda in his podcast told about many Roma people who were very popular but did not reveal it because of the fear of the atrocities of the Westerners. Very sad and tragic. But we assure, when India rises every persecuted community will rise 🙏🏻❤️
Yes.... this video is more accurate.....th-cam.com/video/hqSXE5Te3Yc/w-d-xo.html

I was very sad to see the part where the two guys didn't want to be known as Roma. I have Romani heritage from my father's side, Irish from my mother's side of my family. I spent my first 18 years from birth in horse drawn wagon or vardo travelling. Speaking some amount of a European Roma dialect. I love that about myself. My father is much darker skinned than myself if which I've always been jealous as I got my mums whiter than white tone, lol. I was raised experiencing great prejudice against myself also, but didn't let it take away who I am. I also learned to accept others more and they will accept for who you are also.
Thank you so much for your comment and sharing a bit about yourself. It’s always wonderful to meet more Romanis. Let’s connect on insta @abhinavrevis. Would love to learn more from you. Also, watch out for my next production about the Swedish Romas :)
How is it you grew up among Roma and you cannot comprehend why the guys denied being Roma two guy J strangers pull up from nowhere asking about Roma they could have been haters looking for a Roma to do harm to they could have been policemen looking to arrest some roma from the village surely it was better to act stupid I don't know anything and get these monkeys off your back they was watching out for themselves
Charlie Chaplin also had some roma blood in him
I have seen Romanichal people (English Roma, a few of them actually also have say they have Irish ancestry, is this common with Roma there do they intermarry with Irish or/and Irish Travellers quite a lot ?
I'm British Pakistani , and I love seeing this connection between our people. I know there is much tension between us, but I love seeing the diaspora and journeys our people took. I read that Roma people most likely came from northern India, which today would also include some of North Pakistan. Great job on this, can't wait to watch more of your content. :)
if newspapers, news channels and all online news reports were bannned for an year ( just for fun), most of the so called tensions around the world will cease to exist very quickly.
It's all in the media. It's all in media filled head.
It definitely does include Pakistan too :)
Glad you enjoyed watching. Much more to come. Thank you 😊

They all were from Rajesthan…central and north Hindustan 🇮🇳
Your friend did get a few things wrong. They do want real jobs and education we just don't want to be forced to abandon our culture and that's what every nation we've moved to has tried to do. I can put you in touch with a lot of educated Roma (Romani is better in includes all our Vista/tribes) who can help you learn a lot more. Most gadjo (outsiders) have a lot of misconceptions about us and while not necessarily trying to get it wrong they do.
Sure! I do get that. I would love to learn more. Please put me in touch. Thank you :)
Dear Theodora, I am Dani, Abhinav friend and I was part of a minority community for 17 years in western society.
When I come back home I really want to help and improve as much as possible their lives , specially when I see how hard they work.
We built a little school and put a Roma teacher for them to learn basic education. We build a little church so they can worship as they enjoy. But in the end I understand that, they will only be happy as they are and I think would be bad if we try to force them to live differently.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
😊
You have lost a lot in America, there is very little of Romanipen over there and there is too much lost. Most Roma would not recognise an American as Roma. Not truly. Also, there is no Romani Vista, it is Vitsa.

So true .. when we lived in Hungary Eastern Europe in my family and not just in family the majority of us lived middle class and some wealthy life’s .. unfortunately they don’t want to show those .. so for many Europeans when they hear gypsy first thing that comes to their minds is somebody who’s sit on the streets begging for money or a dirty primitive thieves 😂 .. it get to the point in Hungary when a non gypsy stab somebody or steals something they say gypsy crime and they go and protest enough of gypsy crime 😂 .. yes we have those no question about it but the ones whose normal they say you are not a gypsy they told me that many times when I told them I’m a gypsy they told me your not because you don’t beg or steal or stab people ! So for them for many gypsy is somebody who begs steals not working living in conditions like in the 1 at century with out washrooms running water bathrooms don’t have nothing .. so yeah a gypsy only can be dirty primitive criminals .. and our normal human beings they say well he’s not gypsy 😂😢 .. so it’s an unfortunate situation.. it is what it is .. I would never ever change my race even if I could ❤ 🙏 ..

Beautiful, instantaneously fell in love with our indian brothers and sisters from Romania.
Dear Abhinav, thank you so much for great work you are doing, painstakingly travelling to meet our separated brothers and sisters the lovely Roma people. I got tears of union in my eyes when I saw their response to you in the video. They are very dignified and self respecting people like Indians are despite what life throws at us like mariyada purushotam Shri Ram.
You’re very welcome and thank you so much for your sweet message. I really really appreciate all the support I am receiving. Please help me in sharing this with the world. I shall continue to travel and tell their stories. They need us 💪🏽

YOU'RE DOIN' GREAT ❤️
That was a beautiful documentary… thank you so much … connecting families to their heritage across generations…
Thank you so much Karen for your feedback. I really really appreciate it. Bless you :)
Hi man !! You are doing great work, Isn't there any NGO working to uplift them? ISCKON has a big presence in Eastern Europe, atleast they should help them to integrate with the mainstream while preserving their unique identity & culture.
Hey man! I will touch on that topic in the video releasing tomorrow on my channel. Watch out :)
Thanks for the sweet comment. Please keep sharing it.
You're comment is spot on. We have to utilize ISCKON to help the Roma. It will also help if the Indian MEA and Embassies reach out to the Roma and create a special OCI card for them to allow for travel and immigration to Bharat.

Hello very nice Video 👍🏽 its so beautiful to see that you are interested in Roma people as an Indian. Because many Indian people don't know about Roma and even less about us Sinti. But I have to say one Thing its not true that we dont want to change।
Thank you so much! I would love to know more about your thoughts on this. Can you please connect with me on insta @abhinavrevis. Thank you very much :)
India got liberated and its education is getting liberated only in past few decades. So, Indians are learning about thier long lost connections.
I believe you are a part of us so don't worry you people may be in any part of the world we are one. Vande Matram 🇮🇳 Love from India🇮🇳
Thank you so much for sharing this information with the world. I am half Roma on my mothers side. She passed away when I was very young and learning more about my people brings me so much joy. Thank you for sharing these beautiful videos♥️
Awwww you’re so welcome! I would love to know more about your heritage. Please feel free to connect with me on insta @abhinavrevis. We are one ❤️
The hospitality offered by a Indian to an Indian is always awesome to see. LOVE YOU ALL
Ofcourse from India.
Absolutely ❤️
Namaste Romani people, from your long-lost cousins in India. Bharat Ma (Mother India/The Motherland) always waits with open arms for all of us, no matter how long it has been since we left, so please do visit.
Roma brothers and sisters, u will always be loved by indians and one day u will not be shy in showing ur identity.u can say u r indians.
Амэ Рома❤
Love to Roma people from India. It's painful to see how our people have been treated. We must ask GOI to do something about this. Great work.
*Tears in my eyes after watching this documentary how loving our Indian romani peoples are* ❤❤❤❤
Awwww please share it with every Indian you know 🥹
as a person of roma descent seeing is so beautiful I never grew up around the culture because of most of my roma are gone or are really old and dont associate their identities anymore cause we live in a mostly british city so it's nice to see the culture and people. Love to all Roma brothers and sisters and india brothers and sister love to all
Where are you in Britain?
Are you saying you are Roma but you lost your Roma identity then you lost your language your culture your heritage and so on that means you became guy Jay it's plural it means people who are not of the Roma race
Lucky guys to meet Indians more real than real!
Thanks for the video!
Actually I'm curious and little bit worried about Romani people in Ukraine because of current situation. In a vlog , I've seen them already suffering very bad there. You should try to know about their current life if you can.
I am actually thinking of raising funds for the Roma community I visited in Ukraine!
@@abhinavinsearchofthelost Yes. Very good idea. You should do this specially for those who need help.
Everyone is suffering in Ukraine at the moment, regardless of their origin, but the situation was not better before the war. Because the previous Ukrainian government curtailed the rights of minorities, the victims of which were both Hungarian and Russian, but especially the Gypsy/Roma communities. Minority cultures and languages were banned, schools were closed, people were dismissed from their offices. One of the most extreme cases are stories of people being tied to trees and beaten to death. Roma or people of Roma origin were also doused with paint, stripped naked, tied to trees and left to freeze to death in the winter cold. I am writing this so that people in India know how some countries treat these people. It's something to be ashamed of. That's why I want people all over the world, including India, to learn about the real situation of Roma people, which doesn't seem romantic at all. And for those people who suffered serious and permanent physical or mental injuries or died during these atrocities, no amount of money can restore their health and life. I want people in India to know this too. Regardless of whether they wander in any of the deserts or live their daily lives in the cities.
Come to Ireland, the roma in Ireland need u
@@EmperorofCork please write to me on insta @abhinavrevis. Thank you and I would love to visit you!
So let me put my thoughts 😅😅😅:-
Indians and stereotypes are always together for Westerners.
See bro, even this Roma people are living there for ages but are not considered as an respected citizen of there country. They have to hide their identities, so sad.
It is so sad that they are not getting the basic needs as like the other common citizen of the country.
It doesn't matter that they forgot or don't agree that there ancestors were Indians but the thing which matter is there right and equality as an citizen whichever country they are living.
I will pray for them to Mahadev🙏🏻😔🙏🏻.
One day they will rise! Can’t wait for the day. Thank you for your comment brother :)
Hi, really they have a lot of financial benefits and the local authorities are trying to give them more power to change their lives but as I said to other people, they only enjoy this complete freedom and not rules. Sometimes I get jealous about that, but really this is how they choose to live and they are proud to live this way 😊
Pandeji let's we learn respect dalits in our country b4 we talk and thin other country
@@snaik44Romani People are treated worse than Dalits in India. They even Suffered Genocide and Holocaust which wasn't even mentioned in the History
You Don't Know Very Many • "Westerners" !
everyone should give a thumbs up to this guy. he is doing very hard work around the world for our knowledge. huge love from Assam. India ❤❤🎉
Thank you so much, brother 🙏🏽
Are you Roma if you are or if you are not can I ask you this question when did you ever see this guy putting shoes on the feet of a little Roma girl who didn't have any shoes what government has he approached to fight for the rights of Roma how many Roma children have eaten of the food that he's applied for them do you want me to go on all he's doing is spreading misinformation claiming that Roma are from India and the drama are Indians nothing could be further from the truth there is a word in the Romani language guy J it's plural it literally means any and all people who are not of the Roma race they are considered as guy Jay not our people Indians are by no means any exception to that rule hard work he's doing like he helped to build some houses for Roma who don't have any by the way I am Roma from America there is no such thing as poverty for Roma in America by all means the opposite
You have done a great job in re-establish links with ( South Asia) Bharat's lost people and educating people. Keep up the good work. 👍

Thanks so much for writing to me. Please share it as much as you can with fellow Indians. Cheers and glad you enjoyed watching :)
this guy is stupid , he is pro british imperialism , go look what he said about the queen . The British colonized and enslaved india for 400 years and he walks around and blames turkish people , what a fucking idiotic rumor . Roma are in Europe since more than 1000 years , Turkey only exists since 1923 and the "Ottoman" Empire was founded in 1299 , and India was not Part of "Ottoman" Empire , so how does that make sense to anybody with a honest heart ?
@DEVANAND BISHNOi this is not true , the point is , India was created by the British , it was never ever one Country , they put different people into this National Project , Mughals were always seperate and Hindus were people from the South , India is Huge there are so many different people , even in the tiniest European countries there are differences but you hindu zionists are telling me that there was a united Hindu India thousands of years ago , which is absurd , what we call India today is a social experiment , Ancient India we talk about has more to do with Sasanians and Mughals not Hindus , the People who spread this ancient hindu India and Vedas stuff know exactly what the truth is but they prefer the lie because it benefits them in financial terms . Trust me we never ever did anything to Roma , we didn't enslave them neither were there concentration camps , there were many famous Roma "Ottomans " they worked for this country and they were not seen as different people , this guy said himself they treated everybody equally but not the roma ? do you really believe this nonsense ? everybody was the same , There were East Asian , South Asian , Caucasian , Anatolian , European , African , middle Eastern Pashas and Sultans and Vesir . Everybody had the Chance to become Someone , Turkishness is a modern and sometimes misleading Term , It was about being a Muslim not being a Race , look at turkey today there are so many different ethnic groups , the only thing that keeps us togheter is Nationality and Religion not a pseudo tribal Race which existed thousands of years ago , we have many Politicians of Roma Heritage or Mixed , for example Ibrahim Kalin . Dont listen to modern day Nationalists they are all Freemasonic and they work for London , "Ottomans " never enslaved anyone , it was a kind of USA back in time .
@DEVANAND BISHNOi first of all i said Religion is not about Race , and if they are the same as you why are you killing them ?
@DEVANAND BISHNOi this is bullshit and typical anglicized masonic hinduism , India was never a country , the british created this artificial nation . The Muslims didn't Invade , they were the local population of the north , Hindus are the tamils of south , many of them migrated to the north and mixed .
Thank for a beautiful video bro, you have united us more. Thanks for a great thought and having a sense of unity
You’re very welcome! I love my dear Roma community and I will continue to give them the voice they deserve. Please share and thank you for your sweet comment ❤️
We are one ☝🏾
@@abhinavinsearchofthelost Awesome.
Wow, it's a heartfelt beautifully made documentary. Abhinav has such a deep connection with the Roma. Of late, I had been looking at Roma videos on TH-cam, and this video so vividly captures how the Roma are like. Thanks for your efforts.
Thank you so much 🙏🏽
Kindly share it :)
Got to know about the Indian origin of Romas and Sintis when i was 12(24 now). Watched a lots of videos about their lifestyle and history. Always had a desire to meet them and try to relate. Thanks for making this Abhinav.
Bro collect all documentary. Come to india and visit any film director from south indian industry or bollywood. Ask them to direct film. Only this will create mass awareness not onky inn india but worldwide among such such people to know their original roots. Jay hind🇮🇳🇮🇳

I hope you make a documentary on women who work as tarot/ palm readings.
Heartwarming stuff! Great to see Daniel in his element.
Thanks bruv! Wish you were there too :)
Thanks for making this. I always heard the Romani were from India but it never made sense how that happened. This gave a bit more clarity.
I also had a lot of prejudice against the Romani people, but one day I read an interview about an older Romani woman who sold hand knitted wool clothing on the street in my town and she told about the abuse she were the victim of by people harassing her. So the next time I saw her I bought some wool socks, glows and had a conversation with her and she was a wondeful lady. that was the beggining of me changing my views on the Romani people.
Love you brother and pls give love from us to our brother sister's from Roma
Surely and thank you so much! Love back to you 🥰👍🏽
Abhinav bhai, love you from the bottom of my heart for sharing their stories ❤️🙏🏻
Love back to you bro! I will continue to tell their stories. I am planning more trips very soon to meet more Roma people. Please share this as much as you can. I want every Indian to know about our dear Roma brothers and sisters. Thank you so much :)

@@ercanqa7452 So called Moghuls called themselves Turks. Yes Turks or EX Huns converted to Islam and expanded Islamic empire all over Asia. 10 th and 11 th century empire builders of India were of Turkish origin. Babur though Moghull emphasized his Turkish origin. He detested the Moghul label. It was the Turks or Muslims who called themselves Turks committed unspeakable attrocities against people of India. Till this date Amy Muslim invader of past in india is called Turk! Though it’s wrong to call them all Turks. Some were Gulam or slaves of Turks but equally brutal! Don’t disown Turkish heritage because Turkish invaders looted india! We all know Ottoman came later but they were not humanitarian either! Staunch follower of Islam . Ataturk Kamal Pasha imposed modernity by force otherwise Turks wanted to follow true Islam ! And under Erdogan they do! All the best!
@@mikesheth5370 so called "Mughals" ? Show me the document where any Mughal called himself a Turk , this is historically not correct , Nationalism is a European invention , turkishness is not a Invading Race , it is about being a Muslim , "Ottomans" and "Mughals" never called themself Turks or persians or what ever , they were simply Muslims , Nationalism did not exist in those times , but it seems people have a really hard time to understand things .
I can't explain properly how i feel after seeing the video. I feel a part of everything. Happy to see descendants of our mother india, sad too see their sufferings and prejudices towards them, guilty to have not known about this beautiful community till today.
I hope this video goes viral and people get aware about our brothers abroad. 🙏

It is an awesome job that you are reaching out to the Roma people.
I wish we could sponsor one or a few handworking young people from the Roma people to return to India, the home of their roots...to experience the culture of their past. I bet if more of the Roma returned to India to visit, they would have pride in who they were. The Roma from Romania and Eastern Europe have more Indian DNA.
Thank you so much, Dan! I have plans to bring a few with me to India maybe next year. Feel free to join my Patreon to enable me to tell more of such stories :)
Thank you for educating many on rhe Roma people. I am learning so much.

Thanks for such a sweet comment. It won’t stop here. Can’t wait to tell more stories about them. Watch out ✌🏽
At last! I was allways hoping somebody will make this connection. I hope for the next steps too...How wonderfull it will be to teach Roma children about their ancestry. Give them a touch of flavour of India. It will be so beneficial.
Love your curiosity for the nation and ethinicity.Keep exploring more 👍
Beautiful and lovely Roma people ❤️🇮🇳 love from India 🙏
As Indians, we need to do something for them
Yes! Please share and raise awareness. I want every Indian to know about them! Thank you!
Roma people are said to be rajputs of King Prathviraj Chouhan and with others from Rajasthan and north India migrated to Europe and spred to many parts of world. There language matches with Sanskrit local uttar Bharat and Rajasthani Local language.they our brothers and sisters we should support them
@@anonymous-ds4ix most, most of India's problems are related to its economy and thanks to our current government we are now the fifth largest economy in the world and progressing at a tremendous speed. Unlike European countries we have values it's our tradition to help people when they need . We helped Jews and Zoroastrians when they are not from our land . We helped Tibetans when we don't have enough of anything then it's only logical to help people who are from our land that's why we want to help them...
As he commented first share awareness.
First do sth for nomads in India. people from same community u will find in every traffic light of Delhi Begging.. The look exactly same like Europian Roma's ..fair colour ..diff eye colour. cheek bones are prominent and sharp noses
I know I have a lot of comments I apologize, as a Roma activist who daily speaks to other Romani (Roma is just on of several groups like Sinti, Kalo and so forth) I get very excited when I see people trying to learn and educate others about who we are and the history. Romania in particular knowing that Roma were enslaved for over 500 years and that the slavery went away last with the government and churches many Roma there are only 2nd or 3rd generation born outside slavery. Romania had segregation in school and Roma were all treated as "unteachable", the jobs they offer are the same as the ones they enslaved the ancestors to do and don't give firm opportunities at education and social advancement on an equal footing. That is why they don't integrate into the society where economics are concerned well. Other than that we say integration not assimilation and every country has tried to separate us from our culture, even the U.S. antigypsyism is a global systemic issue. You don't see us everywhere because we have learned not to tell people our race or we get treated poorly, always comes down to being a G*psy, a slur very literally invented for our people. I appreciate what you're doing and can't wait to see more. I can again put you in touch with educated Romani in places you travel who can take you to the mahalas who can help you better understand on your travels just let me know or you can look at rhe people on my Instagram @anyatheodora1 for the Roma NGOs and activism network. Also lots of information I post the global news on Romani as I find it you'll see why we still hide in many areas if you look.
Please don’t apologise! It’s great to connect with you here and I look forward to learning from you :) thank you!
Come back to India
@@amangupta-ll3rs Why ? India is not a rich country for now at least and don't forget we have already a massive population. We should support and help them.
@@shayanraj7840 your statement clearly shows that you and your family counts the number of chapati guests eat. Disgusting
@@amangupta-ll3rs Yes we are poor but I didn't mean that. The actual thing is , even though they are suffering still they have better education system and opportunity in their country than our own country. Our country already suffers Job-less-ness , Reservation in Jobs and all that. We can take care of them after India become developed but not now.
Thank you for your love and respect towards roma people it was very nise and touching watching this video I can fill the love from your side stay safe my brother
One way to revive their respect and value they deserve is to have Indian business communities establishing business in their places.... bridging the gaps .... empowering them more and more .. infrastructure, assets, money, political offices, entertainment industry etc... Roma people can also come, live and expand businesses in India ..... Let's unite !!!!
Good idea
Indian business communities, empowering local people!? An intriguing concept to say the least. They have been in Africa for generations now and own most almost everything. Give them a chance and all the Roma won't own even the horse shoes.
@@aaraar4055 Didn't get you mate.... I am trying to convey a more mutually empowering strategy... Roma people have to come to India and establish big businesses as well.... who knows? may be cultural dishes.... dance practices classes, language institutes , exports etc...
Because Indians have been doing that around the world and exercising soft power and cultural highlights... like Indian restaurants around the globe.... more and more recognition..... textiles and spices.... indian classical music institutes.... high political officers ..... scientific contribution to joint research... academia etc... We can try that for Roma people as well... may be a highlight of their lifestyles in textbook... or they Indian film industry !! There's no particular road map.....
He mentioned Roma loves Horses. I’m sure they were Kshatriyas(Warrior caste) migrated out of Rajasthan after invasion.
Quite possible, brother 👍🏽
It is true Roma love horses but the Roma who are a higher class than these people consider horses something of the past I'm not mocking these people for I am Roma and they are still my people rich or poor as far as Roma being great Warriors from India it's just not true Roma are not the so-called gypsies of Rajasthan two different people being referred to as Gypsy does not make nobody Roma Roma literally means our people example America was at War for the past 20 years or more you know how many Roma's fought for America and there's over a million Roma in America not one because Roma are more for themselves and their family they will not give up their family or lives to fight a war for any country they try to avoid it in other words draft Dodgers and or conscientious objectors
Hmmm....yes....as a Sri Lankan...this video does suggest they have indian features
I came to know about this in March, 2023. Romani people journey is so fascinating. They have seen tough times. they are all over the world. Best of luck 🙏🙏🙏. They are not Lost Indians anymore.
It feels so sad yo see our long lost Indian brothers and aisters are living such a difficult lives outside India. They were forced to leave india due to Turkic and muslim invaders. There language has still many Hindi/sanskrit words... I as an Indian wpuld love to welcome them back to India...
They are better in Europe. If they come to India, you will not make them Brahmin but rather you will put them in Dalit category.
To all Roma community respect and love from the Indians.
