I am in a similar situation, where I alternate between english and french (my native tongue). I know my english is not good enough to write an entire novel, but I often write short stories and exercise writing in both english and french. I don't know how hindi compares to english, but I assume it's pretty different in it's structure. Writing the same story in different languages can drastically change it's pacing and tone; one language being moreable to handle certain kinds of writing styles. At least that's what I've gathered from my experience.For example I love writing /reading science-fiction in english while I strongly prefer french for thriller-type stories. For now I'd say **experiment writing the same stories in both languages** and see how it turns out. Chances are you'll find what languages goes best with the type of stories you want to write.
