Hi Nilesh, This issue has popped up in the past ( https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1022), and one difficulty IMHO is the varying quality of implementations of unicode identifiers across programming languages.
For an implementation, please look at the current Java implementation of IDL: it does support unicode (in the form of Java identifiers). The downside of this though, is that it is inherently unportable and likely not interoperable with other languages.
