hello,
You wont get books in hindi language. Books comes in english only. You have to adjust with the english language and have to understand the questions and solve them. DC pandey is one of the good book. If you look for any book you won't find any in hindi language.
if you want the book in english version and its all parts then visit iitjeephysics4u webpage. You will get all the versions and you can download it also. To be honest, you will be find difficult to understand and time is also less. So don't worry and calm down. Practice previous year papers and be confident on yourself for the part you gave 100%. try to revise theory concepts and solve numericals time to time. even you can't do well you can try again for april time so don't worry. Just give your best.
Hope it helps!
