I have changes width of only above characters in font  (see
u'\u0915\u0916\u0917\u0918\u091a\u093e\u0915' characters)
Updated TTF file http://pravins.fedorapeople.org/Lohit-Devanagari.ttf
Updated Sfd file http://pravins.fedorapeople.org/Lohit-Devanagari.sfd

Does hinting makes any difference here with Bold?
