How to loose an accent? i have an indian accent...?

Well, a speech therapist is the best option. If you don't have the time or money, I would "mimic" the voice of an actor. I know it sounds crazy, but when i learned Spanish, i mimicked the EXACT voice of many of their actors and actually, when i speak to Spanish people, they'll compliment me on my accent and fluency. Also, deeply study the pauses, the "added" words that native speakers use, such as in English we use "um..." "uh..." "well...yeah". The more you become familiar with how to deal with sentence pauses and expressions, the better you'll become. Copy the voice and accent (listen to the syllables) of the native speakers! good luck!
