Savitha, I think there will be cases when either are desirable. Best would be to implement both.
However, I just love the idea of using facets (which are suggested query refinements) when facing a term present in multiple languages. I am still unclear how you can implement 1) in your proposal, but there's a chance you could do it. Remember: no results post-processing (e.g. merging of results).
