Which font is it?

Please try this and show me the result of "log1" and "log2" files.

% MDEBUG_FLT=3 emacs NO_MIDDLE_SPACE.txt >& log1
% MDEBUG_FLT=3 emacs WITH_MIDDLE_SPACE.txt >& log2

Here NO_MIDDLE_SPACE.txt is a file containing only this line:
എനിയ്ക്കിഷ്ടായില്ല
and WITH_MIDDLE_SPACE.txt is a file containing only this line:
എനിയ്ക്കിഷ്ടായി ല്ല
