Devi is more like a title or honorific not a surname. It's probably Singh or Patel for India

Most interesting one I see quickly is Kim in the central asian countries I assume from the mass relocations/deportations of ethnically Korean soviet citizens to central asia during WW2 and a more diverse set of names in central asia.

Adjacently, half (!) of South Koreans’ surnames are one of Kim, Lee, Park, or Jung.
