I mean, they always look at white people, as you are a novelty where ever you go, but it really depends where you are. In Delhi, there are more white people, so it isn't that uncommon, they more view you as a money vending machine, so beggars will ask you money, rickshaw drivers will fight over you, people will try to sell you shit and offer you ridiculous prices and such. More of an annoyance that anything. But the upper class 'jeets like having a white person around. It shows how 'wealthy' and 'connected' they are. I attended a dance party in Dehli once, one called 'Drop Beats, not Bombs', which was ostensibly protesting the war in Iraq. Some photographer asked to take a picture of me and a white girl I was with. The next day our photo was on page 5 of the Hindustan times. Not for being notable in any way, just a couple of white people at a party. Smaller, less metropolitan cities, people will actually stare at you, and make ridiculous assumptions. And in the country it gets really weird.
