Return to India AFTER 18 YEARS in UK with a Middle School Kid : IT & Entrepreneur NRI Family

Good video! Thanks.

I don’t understand his English

UK Different perspective then mostly US, good learning insights we should keep teens busy outside else they stick to their iPads.
Kudos to him for starting up business.

But yeah people living abroad is not waste of life definitely far but still very close to family.
Good one avinash 👌

Highly informative and valuable guidance.
I have a question for Praveen. Which school in Bengaluru you decided on? Thank you both. Highly appreciate the time and effort.

Whats the big idea of moving back when you dont want to be in touch with relatives. Crazy reasons and very selfish

He returned to India on a uk passport given the number of years spent in uk

I returned to India from US 17 years ago. I have established myself in both countries. I took care of both my parents. My children can survive in both places. India is not a mistory for them. They like certain things in US and other things in India. They feel world is at their disposal and so am i .

Thank you for sharing Praveen. Thank you Desi Return for this series. Very relatable.
Judgements from some is quite normal because they haven’t lived your experience Praveen.

There is no details on what he is doing, Whats his brother su was etc so people can relate. Not even his full name given

Just out Trudeau has always been a deceitful, useless prick. I hope he rots in his own misery, impotent till the end.

I am listening to this interview of a person called Praveen. I am invisible. Pravin and the anchor are not aware of my presence. I am relishing , savouring and devouring the chat-cum-conversation of these two extremely decent , polite, intelligent, sensitive yet forthright, honest , very very nice gentlemen ! Men are are , at least in their young age , very strong , mentally physically, ambitious and raring to go ! It is really sad to see them handling the complicated species - the females , in their life. Generally a wife or mother may provide good company in conversing, cooking good meals , taking some care in sickness , wife in making love/building a family , etc. But often females are more of a burden in terms of their unique health problems, they try to fulfil their ambitions thru their husbands as if the husband is their ticket/ lottery to a European lifestyle , set an over ambitious target for their children, and generally for their own ulterior motive never want to return to India as long as they can ! Hats off to the testosterone super species for not succumbing to the whims n fancies and pressures of ‘the wife’ and executing the wise decision of returning to your own country , the value of which one realises only when you stay abroad for a few years! 😊🙏🙏🙏🩵💙💜💚💛❤️💜💛💕💕💕💕💕

Thanks ,for sharing i resonate process very well after spending 3 years in London.

India is just not safe for women and children even in schools for children. You just have to look into the child molestation, child labour child kidnapping, chilp prostitution, child bullying...etc in India.

Once financially independent, it is really good idea to consider return back to India for children education/mindset/values.
Moreover it will a great opportunity to take care parents and spending quality of life withthem.

After the children's education, they can decide themselves where to settle, as they have UK passport they came and work in UK later based on their interest.

Thank You For The Video.❤

I am also in same situation in uk , now I am planning to move as my son is 11 years old.

You are sending to Harrow International school in Bangalore.

Thank you for this channel. I wish every talented indian comes back to india, so that our country becomes so strong that it should hard for Americans to get visa for india. Fingers crossed, hopefully one day❤

The thing is NRI's must not compare developed country with india. The two are different. Its not necessary you have to live in a perfect city, the best school in india or perfect job. Even if the kids study in normal school get good grades, they can go abroad or good job. Gone are those days of the past where school mattered.

The best feelings you have when you come back to India is you are not an immigrant any more.
After coming back to lndia for good after 42 years in London, l can bet the quality of life l am getting here, l wouldn't get that anywhere in the world. Unfortunately, my dream has been shattered as my beloved husband passed away 2 years after coming back.
Anybody wants to come back, must come back when the children are young.

When In India you have to accept India as it is.

Your guest always has a better audio, your audio is very poor, your subject is very interesting, we all have children abroad and want them to come back. Please improve, otherwise no one will watch , your guest r good

You as an anchor need to work on Audio as well as your own voice modulation.

NRI's, please return to india the same way when you left for abroad.
If you know what sacrifice means- it means you surrender everything including your foreign citizenship. Because anybody can return back, but sacrificing for your country only true fighters can do without any greed and personal benefit.

Just to balance the other side of the opinion, some comments from an Indian in UK.
Winter: Multisports are the basis for every sportsperson. The UK does completely different sports in winter and summer. My child is a cricketer, so he plays cricket in summer and hockey/rugby in winter, along with regular swimming and running.
Juggling: Sports in the UK are community-driven. You, as a parent, should be equally committed. It's not like in India, where you just put your children in coaching classes.
Productivity: Productivity is not equal to more hours. Europe, including the UK, is one of the best places for work-life balance.
India has changed: maybe for 2 boys would you say the same for Girls!

you can make some money in uk but no health due to lack of sunlight and your next generation identity will be lost

It’s wrong to pin the decision to move back to India to parents. The real reason in most cases is people find it very cheap to send kids to private schools, join sports clubs etc, get help for household chores. All these things are absurdly costly here. Another thing is that these are all people who have acquired an American or British passport already. So it would definitely in their best interest to move back to India, and if things don’t work out, they can freely move back to these western countries.

Can he tell us which school the kids are enrolled in Bangalore please. Thanks

Coming back to another city,somewhat away from extended family,is a personal choice.I prefer living close .

You don't have to go through the hassle of transferring your pensions. Let your pension go in your UK bank. I have a bank in HSBC, London branch and my pensions go in there. I transfer money to my Indian banks time to time. It makes life lot easier.

Money is not enticing if you can't show off 😅

Loving SOL and AWS66N! Following your advice has made me $36K weekly profit return by. Super excited now I can pay bills!

Agree 👍

Is it possible to know which international school he has choosen? I am looking for some school
Many thanks

Which country citizenship does he holds British or Indian

When your kid becomes big he will go again

I can so relate to this story 😊

All his cons of living abroad are only applicable to his situation and to many they sound silly and just making up reason to go back 🤪 😅😂.

In summary, the family moved to India to take care of their aging family. They have property and maybe an ILR or British citizenship and will come back soon.

Thanks so much for this video! Do you have examples of anyone moved to Kerala in the channel?

Pravin is being gracious to women. The fact is “only” women don’t want to go back. I know the reason, in-laws 75/100 cases. 25/100 may be because of peer pressure from females friends in the school and showing off in Facebook.

I am planning to be back in 10 years when kids grow up.

Not all women are willing to reason and discuss it. They are blinded in the pursuit of career and selfishness that they forget what they leave behind sometimes. All the great women I have come in touch with juggling 4 kids and being directors in companies, teaches me that women who chooses to focus on family are much more contend and fulfilling. Those who neglect kids and pursue career end up being unhappy and feeling void with regret that they choose to ignore family and yet not achieve any great stuff anyway.

Definately a good decision to return back to India😊

The people have a better life in India .....but they do not believe you...

100% agree, those who live with parents are really really lucky !!! ❤

Don’t forget the Edu in UK or US with gender 💩 is dangerous for kids 😮😮

Not doing laundry, dishes and looking for servants??? Taking own children to their activities does need car and not your presence in UK.

Thinking about old parents life but making them to take care of your own children and making them cook and pamper you. All life conveniences.
Even after moving to India, parents live alone in their own home.
Going to different cities... Running away from relatives. haha. So, in-laws too.
Bengaloru has developed and good for opportunity and has life style comparatively.

UK weather doesn't help during winter. Not able to adapt to cold.
He wants to interact with kids - basically no control over kids. You don't want them to be independent.
Authority over kids will be gone.

When kids grown up, they don't want to come back. Then how they are happy living ik UK ?

Doing UK business based in india and moving to india is not completely giving away UK.
Having own business in India, can have indians working for UK production in lower wages paying in INR not in pounds.

Sports opportunity for children - that too in best place in bengaluru.
How many can afford such academies in India?
Looking for schools and sports academy as good as UK. haha
There are many academies in UK. But needs to be paid in pounds.
Everything is based on self conveniences.
How many indian families are able to send their children to such big academics in india or even a normal places?
Moving home is not packing 💯, but to rent the home and still own it in UK. Rent paying the mortgage and still have UK addresses.
Pensions - UK pensions.
Citizenship ???
So totally its all about self convenience. Not able to adapt , live independently to take care .. needs other people eho can be servants doing chores.

What if those servants life changes ? What if they get a opportunity to move out?

BBC - anti india.. hahaha

So make money in UK and live indian life.
If wife not willing, then the reason is not fairing women.


Multiply by two living in india with all UK standard life style. hahaha

Finally when are you and family giving up UK citizenship?

This guy owns a UK business baesd in India and enjoying living richer in india getting maids etc to do chores.
What do we call this?

How many indians can do this?

There are many who have bounced back after returning to india, find them and do a podcast. Then you get real picture.

Well done, fair play. My kids are 4 and a bit. Financial viability is the one which is making me think a lot otherwise all my heart and soul is in India. Thank you for your input. Also convincing wife is a big bit I have to worry. Absolutely agree with everything you said praveen

Jivantata = To feel alive

That's what people like living here India special Mumbai loves to live in Mumbai if you have a good business or good job. People enjoy more day to day life also weather.
