A certified check is a personal check you write. You take it to your bank who certifies that you have the funds on hand to clear the check.
The check will be stamped or otherwise marked so that it cannot be cashed by anyone but the payee and the amount will be withdrawn from your account immediately.
A Cashiers Check is similiar to a money order. You give the bank the money for the check - or your account is debited - and the bank writes a check on its own accounts. Since it is a third party check issued by a bank it is widely accepted.
I would assume that in India it might be easier for you to get a US Dollar Cashier's check. Any bank involved in international finance can issue one for you.

All banks can issue a cashiers check. I would suggest that you go to a foreign exchange bank that is familiar with your currency.
The link below will give you some options on which banks to contact in the United States.

any bank should be able to issue a certified check, and I do believe new york would take one from india if it is verifiable.
