so first you waste your time in teaching a language they ought to know before entering the industry and then waste some more time (and perhaps money too) in teaching them how to act

Overall how they look supersedes their ability to speak the language...but I agree, it's more fiscally responsible to have someone who does speak the language

Well, I don't think it'll be that hard for her to speak in hindi because she speaks Gujarati fluently. Gujarati and Hindi are kinda similar to each other.
