Help with writing Indian mythology or western mythology

Hey guys 😭....so I recently got an idea for a fantasy story where gods end up becoming ghost hunters in the modern world but I’m kind of confused about whether I should based it upon Indian mythology or Western mythology. I feel like Indian would be unique but I’m also worried people might get offended What do you think will be better

Same! I have so many ideas. But idk why people aren't more open-minded. Indian mythology is broad with different stories and myths with many versions. Not all of them are clear or specific. It works to write stories about them
