There is no direct equivalent of Hello as there are we Indian greet based on the age to whom we are meeting. Though "Namaste" is normal greeting however to greet elders we generally say "Pranam" who in return will say "Ashirwad" or "Khus Raho".
While departing again different words are used "Alvida" is one whereas now-a-days they do say "Phir Milenge". Though "Namaste" and "Pranam" is also used normally.
One more tradition is that when two different age people meet then younger one touch feet of elder one and elder one place his hand on younger ones head.

You have to be managable in each languages. This is when you consider that ninety percentage of men and women in Rural India (or even in Urban India in states like UP, Bihar and so on) dont recognize English, for this reason Hindi is needed. On the opposite hand, so much men and women in Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, and North-East dont recognize Hindi safely, for this reason, we have to have a few English. But if you're dwelling for many years in a few situation, then a few nearby language is needed, seeing that, you uncover a few men and women who dont recognize both English or Hindi. I am staying in Bangalore for a while, and for this reason, have got to converse in Kannada to the above stated men and women (even though damaged). In the nutshell, 3 languages are required. English, Hindi and Local Language.

Sorry, I don't Hindi, but there are millions of people in India who do. I would be a pity not to learn it's beautiful writing system, as it would help speed up your language acquisition.
Good luck! :-)
