Im not indian, but any country in the world would still be legible for your answer. Its just taste, you cant expect newer generations to love the same things. Media and advertisements will also help influence preferences. And as far as Indian classical music soothing your nerves and gives peace. Many genres also do the same thing, including the western genres.

The western world was quickly built like a science project by slaves and race of human beings that were not reparated but, segregated against. The orthodoxy of the society is freedom. The music evolved from lamentations and poetry that was manifested in music. From bitter comes sweet! Now, remember that all the world was imperialized by the West; there are many wailing mute all over the globe from this system. What do you think will happen when they hear jazz, blues, soul, rythm and blues, rap, hip hop, rock n' roll, and reggae? Yes, they hear someone else bridging with them, sharing their pain, motivating them to conquer their fears! Do you think that it was just the blunt in Bob Marley's mouth that made him a king in his genre

I'm American and when I was younger enjoyed Indian music
as well as Japanese and Spanish music. It's not that I don't like western music I just wanted to learn about what others did.
in the end I feel it opened my eyes that all people can and do make wonderful music no matter where they come from

Well classical Indian music is very boring, no base, no variation of tone, appeals to a small section of people, needs to have a developed ear for music, not for the average person. I prefer western music, it is far more catchy.

You can have both. In my generation from the Sixties, the Beatles introduced us to Raga music of Ravi Shankar, and it caught on.
I often like to watch 'Namaste America", if I'm up that early on the weekend.
But I'm an American, which doesn't answer your question.
Maybe the youth of the Subcontinent just want to hear something different; Another factor is that English and American values and social modes have splayed to many areas of the world.
Indian people I meet here speak English very well.
So they have early on been exposed to British and American cultural influences,which probably includes the music.

It's not only in India but even everywhere else. I believe it is because of the cultural hegemony of the Western civilisation, and the other reason will be the feeling that classical music lost its link with the present.

You are 100 per cent correct. In fact, we Indians are consciously trying to forget our heritage, which is richer and more advanced than any others in the whole world.

you cannot force young, modern people to like classic music.
in my opinion, indian heritage is dull and rigid, too hierarchic and too superstitious.
it's no surprise that your young people are looking to other cultures.
