It is generally not acceptable for men to shake hands with a woman until and unless she offers the same. Hugging or kissing is not accepted by people irrespective of how long you may know them. The Western side-to-side hand wave for “hello” could be interpreted as a sign (\u0938\u0902\u0915\u0947\u0924 – Sanket) for ‘no’ or ‘go away’, so be careful.<\/p>\n
