>1. How much should I focus on Hindi/Urdu vs other languages like Bengali or Tamil? Would it be better to just focus on Hindi/Urdu or learn basic phrases in multiple languages?
just learn some basic hindi
>2. How dangerous are the locals really? I plan on being in smaller villages and towns instead of cities. I've read some horror stories online but maybe those were just very unlucky encounters. I don't dress flashy and will be avoiding women, which is gonna be hard because they're the most beautiful to me.
shops, taxis, street food vendors might overcharge you or try to rip you off but aside from that no one's gonna bother you, you might get stares and some people might ask you for a selfie but that's about it. people will be friendly if you don't act like a complete asshole.
also avoid pajeetas for you own safety.
