Malayalam subs are not rendering properly for me with VLC for Ubuntu 16.04. I have set srt file and VLC preferences to UTF-8, using a Malayalam font in preferences etc. But the fonts are not rendering properly while played during video ( works fine with subtitle editor and other apps ). Just to add, Malayalam is a popular language in Southern India. I am attaching screen shot and VLC preferences

Would be great if someone can help me fix this issue.
Edit :
Just tested. Works well with SM Player

The problem is to fix that kind of issue, you need to be able to understand what is wrong.
And without reading Malayalam, there's no chance from a single screenshot.
You'll need to explain further

And you need to try VLC 3.0 first, where lots or rendering fixes have been done.
