In India they have to marriage when they are too young because this is their tradition and if they didn’t marred they will think something wrong with you and they think it in bad way and they are collectivist culture. But in USA if you are ready you can married even if you are too young or too old, Depend when you will meet your future wife and they are individualist culture.

5. Low-Context Culture and High-Context Culture
Low context implies that a lot of information is exchanged explicitly through the message itself. People in low context cultures such as the USA tend to have short-term relationships, follow rules and standards closely and are generally very task-oriented.
High-context: High context implies that a lot of unspoken information is implicitly transferred during communication. People in a high context culture such as India tend to place a larger importance on long-term relationships and loyalty and have fewer rules and structure implemented
Example, when todd said this place is disaster and puro replay no problem but actually its problem but he want satisfy todd and make him feel relax

6. Low-Context Culture and High-Context Culture
High context refers to societies where people have close connections over a long period of time such as USA. However, the Low context refers to societies where people tend to have many connections but of shorter duration or for some specific reason such as Indian
high-context culture.
For example, when Todd asks Puro if he can take a long trip to recover
a shipment that has been sent to the wrong location, Puro declines the
request in a very indirect manner, in line with collectivists’ concern . “No problem But first I must
sleep for two hours, so that I can come back for the interviews with
the new agents, and then I must make sure that my mother gets to the
hospital.”
