What would an Indian setting involve other than superpowerful gods? What kind of themes and culture is involved?

On the more fantasy side, ancient cities and temples lost in the jungle would make for good dungeon romps.

Watch Baahubali. It's basically live-action anime.

The concept of Dharma if applied to a fantasy setting would be interesting. Everyone's soul has a particular divine duty that they should fulfil, do it and you get good karma, break from it and you get bad karma. It would be interesting to consider a setting where these things are much more obvious and direct.

Arrows of Indra answers this question and is in the OSR trove.

Playing in one (I think, it's also vaguely tibetian?)

Basically the same, just different type of monsters. Also Rakhsasa.

It would be interesting to see fantasy Jain monks roaming around, though they'd be almost impossible to play as PCs. They'd gain magical powers through starvation so if there was ever a loophole that allowed them to fight they'd make the perfect glass cannon style wizards.

Games without fighting are perfectly possible.

Spells passed down like weapons, possibly stored in a physical form.

Lots of fun arrows.

Powerful female rulers and warriors.
