How to Add Hindi Subtitles in DaVinci Resolve
Hindi is written in the Devanagari script, and everyday speech mixes in English words constantly, so a caption tool has to carry both scripts in one line. Caption Pro transcribes your timeline with Whisper AI and lets you review the text before it is placed, so the Devanagari and the English bits both land correctly.

Devanagari stacks consonants and vowel marks into combined shapes, which is why display needs a font built for it. Noto Sans Devanagari renders these conjuncts cleanly inside DaVinci Resolve Text+ templates, including lines that switch between Hindi and Latin script. Caption Pro places the transcript into that template and lets you fix anything first.
Hindi speech very often code-switches with English, and Whisper handles that mix reasonably, though it is exactly where a transcript benefits from a human pass. The review step highlights uncertain words so you can correct them by ear before captions are placed, and only the line you edit changes.
This fits Hindi YouTube, vertical short-form, tutorials, and content subtitled in Hindi for a wider audience. You can also transcribe in another language and translate into Hindi, or start from Hindi and translate the captions into 100+ languages.
