    Your passport must be valid, at least 6 months. Better go get a new passport and you can use the existing visa. Hand both passports to immigration for inspection.. no problem.

    Actually India is exempt from the 6 month passport validity rule while travelling to USA. Check this link:

    [Citizens of the countries listed in below link are exempt the six-month rule and need only have a passport valid for their intended period of stay.]
