  Devanagari support was added a while ago.  The layout engine was
according to reports working for at least one other Indic script
(Bengali, I think), but not for others (Oriya?  Can’t remember).  I
wouldn’t expect a renderer for Devanagari to do a very good job on Tamil
or Malayalam, for example.

  Hindi uses hyphenation, Urdu doesn’t.  We have patterns for Hindi in
TeX-Hyphen: https://github.com/hyphenation/tex-hyphen/tree/master/hyph-utf8/tex/generic/hyph-utf8/patterns/tex/hyph-hi.tex

	Best,
