If emerging countries (for example, India) do grow significantly (health, wages, consumer spending, etc), but it's U.S. based companies that are most heavily growing there, does that mean the corresponding India ETF doesn't actually do well?

I would like to think that growth in areas like Southern Asia will be heavy in the coming areas, however, I wonder how much of it will come to the benefit of U.S. companies. For example, if Google and Amazon and Netflix are absolutely massive in India, then will India-based ETF's actually not do that well (because the domestic companies aren't the ones that are growing)?

To some larger extent, if it's the big established companies of the world that grab market share in emerging markets, are emerging market etf's at a disadvantage? How likely is this thesis of emerging market etf's being at a disadvantage?
