- Fauna Hodel's daughter Yvette Gentile, on India's work in I Am the Night (2019): "India is unbelievable as our mother. In real life, our mother was like a fairy. She was so deep and so spiritual and at the same time she was so clear and she had such intent of what she was here to do and India brought all of that and then some. When we saw the first screening of it all put together, my sister and I were blown away. She is such an incredible actress and an incredible human being.".
- Has another older half-brother, Max, from her mother's second marriage to Akira Fuse.
- She enjoys cooking.
- The only time I was the cool kid at school was when my dad took me to school on his bike. Then I went back to being the deeply uncool girl who never spoke.
- [The interviewer asked India draw a lot from the anime or come up with her own take for her character for Kite.]: Not so much to draw from the anime because our version from the anime is kind of different, but I think it's pretty straight forward, she's falling apart emotionally and there's the other side of her that's a killing machine.
- [on possibly doing nude scenes when she was 16] I mean, it's the human body. I don't see what's so prohibited about it.
