How to say hello in Hindi

नमस्ते! — that is what a face drawn in Hindi says when it bumps into another face on sayihello.

Say	Sounds like	When
नमस्ते	namaste	standard — any time, arriving or leaving
नमस्कार	namaskar	slightly more formal
हैलो	hello	casual — common in cities

Namaste is said with palms pressed together and works at any time of day, arriving or leaving. In cities a plain hello is just as common.
