Can she pass in Bangladesh?

I see the bengali quite clearly. It is clearly not Indian influence but bengali specific, still though she prob fits easier in India proper due to the admix. The south asian is quite strong in this one. Looks fully south asian.

Unsuccessful mix. Successful ones are those who look like combinations of both parts.

She doesn't look the English part. Makes sense since Bengalis/Bengladeshis are typically mongoloid-influenced.

How'd you classify her then?

I don't classify, sorry. To me she looks South Asian but not the more typical looks I associate with the subcontinent.

Atlantid+East Brachid for her. She leans towards the South Asian side tho. IMO she is passable in Bangladesh, Pakistan and the upper part of India. I've seen Nepalis with this phenotype too.
