It kind of looks like bug 97171
How does this affect it: Tools - Options - LibO - View - Use OpenGL for all rendering

Set to NEEDINFO.
Change back to UNCONFIRMED after you have provided the information.

In fact, "Tools - Options - LibO - View - Use OpenGL for all rendering" was checked in my case. When i unchecked that option, Devnagari text appears normal. Hence, this problem looks solved for me. :)
