Three years ago when Vani Kola, a top Silicon Valley entrepreneur, left for India after about 20 years in the United States, it made headlines.

She was one of the first high-profile Indians to return to her home country.

Since then, many more highly-skilled Indians, who had come here primarily to study and to do research and some of who later on founded companies generating jobs and wealth, have followed suit, leaving America for greener pastures in India.
