Issues on the adbove devnagari font

Question

I like th texure and ligatures of the font, adobe devnagari, but however I am sad to report that much characters do not appear correctly. For example, the character does not appear even if it is the the reportire,

For example the character in Tiro Devnagari Sanskrit

The same character is Adobe Devnagari

It amazes me that the it is in the font reportire of the Adove devnagari but still does not appear in the document or anywhere.

Could some one help me figure out this. Not having this character in a paid font worries me a little bit.
