Hmm, by this logic Indians would believe that life in India is about dancing and singing all day in a rain of flowers, and getting lucky is getting a peck on the cheek... Now I've never been in India but I'm pretty sure Indians realize it's not like this :)

Fundamental Attribution Error: "A person will attribute qualities of [their own nation] to their environment and situation, but qualities of [other nations] to inherent properties of those others."

Everyone knows their own country isn't like the way it's portrayed by the media. But, at the same time, everyone knows that all other countries are like the way they're portrayed in the media. It's a wonder our brains don't leak out.
