I once chatted briefly with a guy from India. He knew 5 or 6 Indian languages plus English.

In India you NEED to know at least 3 to get by :)

But I salute anyone who knows a non-Indo-European language in conjunction with an Indo-European language

So if someone knows Tamil + Hindi + English + Marathi --> that's impressive. Ditto for those who know an Indo-european language along with a Dravidian or other language
