Do you think the "dating status" of south asian men in the west has improved?

So I am a white westerner and I am asking because of some observations I have made over the past 5 or so years here in the west:

1. racist memes/speech against south asians is at an all time high, it was not like that when I was a kid

2. at the same time I see many south asian men in positions of power and dating white native women

So, would you say that despite the racism south asian men face currently, their sexual market value in the west has increased ? Or maybe the racism has increased BECAUSE the SMV and professional success has gone up ?

What do you guys think?
