Total control that you can see in India is not necessarily good. But I see the opposite in the US. The parents exercise no control and it is very common to see kids who are less accomplished than their parents. This you rarely see in India.

How can one spend the rest of his/her life with someone whom he/she doesn't know anything about! This was the notion when people found arrange marriage very old fashioned and wanted to move to love marriage style. How can one spend the rest of his/her life with just one person! This is current notion people are having and thus thinking marriage is old fashioned! But my thought is, is everyone finds it easy enough to meet, date and propose to their partners? Do we all find it easy to find one, anyway? This leaves many of us single forever. Here arranged marriages work better bringing prosper into their lives! So go your mind way and get things done ur way. Jus 'cos everyone is going for love marriage do not wait for that to happen. Get things done ur way. If love happens to you, then do not force urself otherwise! Its the perspective with which one sees the marriage!
