Plain.tex doesn't allow two accents. You need something like this:

Yes. but imho not the language decides if this definitions are
needed or not but the font: If it has the chars you don't need the
fake accents
That can't work, since you're working with Sanskrit in both cases (in
Latin transliteration, or in Devanagari). The script is the
discriminating criterion in this case.
Just for clarification:
In the first case, writing Sanskrit in transliteration, one would

package takes care of that.

Hi,
the crossed out boxes usualy mean that the character does not exist. In
Linux you can test it e.g. in gucharmap, just open the unicode map
displaying the corresponding page, select your font and right-click to the
