So i have been taken some online Hindi lessons because i am meeting my Indian friend and his family soon. I was practising yesterday (trying to impress a friend) when he said he knows someone who learnt to speak and understand Hindi from watching Indian Movies. So House, Can one learn Hindi from watching Indian Movies?

Except you make a conscious attempt to do so. I've watched a lot of hindi movies and have only being able to learn a few words.

To wooh the mother be sure to greet her Namaste Auntie upon arrival. And before leaving remember to thank the mum by saying shukriah or daniwaad. Another tip is to buy sweets when going, most Indians appreciate this gesture. Goodluck future husband!
