India might be considered the most open nation when considered historically. History provides ample evidence, which may include “Kamasutra”, the art of love making or the erotic depictions of love making at Khajuraho Temples but Valentine’s day in India is a recent phenomenon. The previous generations have never witnessed such a celebration in the Indian society. The open celebration of love is something which is quite rare in Indian society where having a love affair is not generally accepted and a person’s moral values are questioned. In contradiction, almost all Indian firms and now Indian soap now depicts not only the love affairs but extra – martial affairs as well as multiple love affairs.<\/p>\n

It is definitely a cultural influence from the western countries which hold such celebrations.
