While aware of how diverse India's regions are along with the existence of Vermicelli-like Noodles such as Sevai and Idiyappam, am inspired by this Hindustan Times article asking whether Noodles will become an Indian staple in the future.
With pre-1900 PODs, the challenge is to instead have Noodles (both Rice or non-Rice versions including such as Durum Wheat / Sooji, etc) displace regular Rice as an Indian Staple food to the point where Noodles are as ubiquitous as the rest of Asia.
