As a South Asian NNES, should I even try?

I am a HS graduate and planning to pursue English teaching career in Japan. There's very little from South Asians on the faq under the subreddit's wiki. I want to know the most optimal path that I can choose and what complications will I have to face as a NNES and that too from India with a very weak passport. Is there a particular degree I need to pursue and whether learning basic or high level Japanese help me in becoming an ALT or direct hire teacher in Japan.

Any kind of suggestions are welcomed 🙂
