shantanu, You compared chromium-browser to Google Chrome and said that Chrome works. I'm interested in the Chrome version, in addition to the chromium-browser version.

The following steps fixed the problem for me.

Go to settings > customize fonts>
Change standard font , serif font, sans-serif font, fixed-width fonts to any bangla font (i.e solaimanLipi)
Encoding to UTF-8

That doesn't seem like a fix for everyone, shantanu. Is it that the default font doesn't support bangla? You changed four things, too, I see. Which one or ones is it that solved your problem? Specificity matters.

Also, do you mind attaching a screenshot of the corrupted text here? You put plain text above, but that doesn't show the problem if my web browser is affected by this bug, which is the very problem of this report.

Is it that the default font doesn't support bangla? No

Which one or ones is it that solved your problem? I changed only standard font to bangla first. but it didn't work. After that i changed all four to bangl font. I will check all possible combination and let you know.

do you mind attaching a screenshot of the corrupted text here? I attached a screenshot of corrupted text in chromium. I post this bug using firefox. Now i am using chromium.

Not screenshot of corrupted, but of uncorrupted. Sorry I didn't get this.

shantanu, I want to make sure the bug is fixed. Please open chromium-browser with a temporary-profile, and see if you see the problem.

If you do, please

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:cmiller/chromium-browser-stable-daily
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
$ sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:cmiller/chromium-browser-stable-daily

and then run chromium-browser and try to reproduce.

before_set_font(default_settings).png Edit (7.5 KiB, image/png; name="before_set_font(default_settings).png")

This bug is not fixed in daily build version.
How to fixed :
Go to settings > Customize fonts
change Sans-serif font (3rd option) to any bangla unicode font.
Problem will solve immediately. Don't need to restart browser.

I am attaching two comparative screenshoots. 1st before set bangla font and
2nd after set bangla font.
