Your still missing the point. It is hard because there is no demand. There are plenty of Indians working in the US, UK and other countries. They work in fields who have demand, like medical, technical. India is incredibly hard to work as an expat in fields that don't have demand, logistically impossible. You need to understand there is more going on in the world than aviation.
Only a very few get through life without paying dues. You may not get a job for 5, 10 years in your 737, this puts you ahead of most of us who didn't see a jet until we had 4, 5 thousand hours or more. The biggest thing missing flying with Indian F/o's is I have nothing to talk to them about. They have no life experience, no flight stories from previous jobs. When they turned 20 they were hired on at XXX airline and thats it. So go to Africa or somewhere where demand for instructors and pilots is high, gain some life and flight experience so when you do get hired, we can swap stories and laugh about all the times we just about died.. Be patient your time will come if you just keep focused and stop worrying about things you can't control.
