I assure you to mould my candidates into best version of themselves.

According to my perspective, It is entirely based upon the location of a resident of India. If he is at his job or business, he will use english. Otherwise, Indians are more comfortable in their native language.

"Touch Wood" in UK or "Knock On Wood" in US. They are mentioned in order to avoid bad luck while talking about a person's fortunes, prosperity etc: Does one have to really "Touch Wood" (or "Knock On Wood) or just say it? Thanks in advance, Superstitiously Yours................................
It’s a medieval superstition that has gathered strength over the years among those who are prone to being superstitious. Today, some superstitious people just utter the phrase without touching wood but others actually touch wood to feel more secure.
