Karnataka state, deep in the Southern tip of India, is a mix of multiple languages. Hindi is the official language of India, but here you’ll be stuck finding many that can speak it regularly. Instead, bone up on Kannada, the official language of Karnataka and the 3rd most common of South India.
Separate movies, music and script differentiate Kannada from Hindi in these parts. Fortunately English is widely spoken throughout the state allowing tourist easy passage.
