Since gnome-terminal & its emulators like guake uses vtk which do not provide complex utf-8 rendering, Indic Language support is poor in them.

Konsole of KDE & its frameworks like yakuake works well on Indic Languages. Me using it for Malayalam -ml_IN which is a complex indic script.

I am using mutt as my mail reader and am quite happy with it. I generally

the terminals display the indic characters.
Searching I found that mlterm has good support for Asian languages and
installed it. Unfortunately the debian version is compiled without indic
support. I could not find the reason for it.
In view of this, can anyone suggest a good terminal which is capable of
displaying indic characters properly?
I am using debian testing with some packages from sid via apt pinning.

Yeah, you need to have utf8 support and then too Indic fonts installed.
