I don't think they realise which side India was on

I know right? It's kind of impressive how many layers of stupidity and ignorance are piled on top of each other here.

I don't think I could come up with something this dumb if I were deliberately trolling.

FWIW some Indians did fight for the Japanese in WWII. They were treated, um, unpleasantly when they were caught by allied Indian troops.

Both ww1 and ww2. India sent over a million soldiers to Europe during ww1. Can you imagine those guys traveling back time, joining the German army (like they would be accepted!) Only for them and their unit to get wiped by some dark-skinned guy from Calcutta who doesn't speak any English?
