One weird fact about Alexander is;
When he reached India, his companions started killing Indian monkeys. They had heard indian people are vary different in colour and small in size!!!!
They wasted two months killing wrong species in indian, same expedition of ALEXANDER THE GREAT became last one for him during return He died in the because of some reason, related are many theories.
Another fact is he when started his expansion to India every prince of that period yealded before him except the PORUS. PORUS lost the war and after that Alexander asked him, you are brave man. What should you want to have, as last wish. He told him restore my position. Alexander made him the governor of same province and ordered him rule in his name.
There are so many stories about Alexander the great and in expansion to India but don't know how many of them are true and which are false.
One thing that everybody believes is true is the Greco-Roman art that is existing still in India.

hmmm , how crazy is this, I guess this was a good protection for the Indian people.

I think better way to discribe was a communication barriers between the European and South Asian people, after Alexander the silk rout started, nowadays is reconstructed by China and allies as OBOR.
