I tested in Ubuntu platforms the bug fixed font
http://pravins.fedorapeople.org/Lohit-Tamil.ttf that Pravin points to in
Comment #4 . 

I confirm that the bug is solved.

In Ubuntu (and similarly other Debian based systms) until this bug fixed update
for ttf-indic-fonts-core comes onstream we can copy the bug-fixed
Lohit-Tamil.ttf to the existing font name which is lohit_ta.ttf . For example
for Ubuntu the steps are as follows:

>From a terminal

1. Close all opened apps which use Lohit Tamil for rendering any content

2. cd to the folder in which the bug fixed Lohit-Tamil.ttf is downloaded.

3. enter the following command

sudo cp Lohit-Tamil.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-indic-fonts-core/lohit_ta.ttf
