You don’t need the „regime“ stuff in ConTeXt MkIV, at least as long as you write in UTF-8.
But you need fonts that support your desired glyphs. DejaVu supports Russian and Armenian, but not Punjabi, Arabic and Hebrew (at least in the version installed at my computer).

I can’t help you with the PDF bookmarks, sorry; I tried different options, but the functionality is probably broken.
