As I was born in one and have been to the other many times, India and Russia are very much alike. Both have very strong religous values. Both have extensive family roots. Both are very culture oriented, and yes, both have had and still have instances of stoning people to death for such reprehensable acts such as "being gay". Fortunately for me, my family moved to America before I was even 10 but I still go home every summer and have a multitude of friends and family I have to face every year. It seems that the mothers of the world always know before you do. So I say start there. Confide in your mother first and alone. Don't just say "mom i'n gay". Start with something like,

Mom, You know I love you and would never willingly hurt you but, there is something I need to share with you. My life as you may already know. As my mother I am confident you would want me to be happy and healthy. I am healthy and plan to stay that way. As for the happy, That is a matter where you can help me immensely.

Then you explain how you are different. I am pretty sure she will stand by you no matter how much she disagrees with your lifestyle. Then once you have gotten your family comfortabe with your life, get your cute butt to America ;)
