you must download your language font file(.ttf) and put in asset folder.

Typeface tf = Typeface.createFromAsset(getAssets(), "fonts/Akshar.ttf");               
TextView tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.CustomFontText);
tv.setTypeface(tf);
tv.setText("Seasonal messages like welcome (நல்வரவு) is used in Kolam. Volunteering to draw kolam at temple is sometimes done when a devotee's");
