The Autonym font includes characters for all the languages supported by
MediaWiki, but only a small subset:

In general, "one font to rule them all" is highly
discouraged/impractical as a means to achieve reasonable results in a
variety of world languages. Indic fonts, for example, typically
contain complex shaping engines in bytecode -- it's just not practical
to try to write one engine for everything.

There's also a newish font from Google that has quite wide coverage:

FreeSerif and even FreeSans have Devanagari for Hindi, but lack other
things. There are helpful coverage tables; a script exists that could be
adapted to produce some for other fonts.

Thanks Federico, I used /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf
but didn't see FreeSerif. DejaVuSans doesn't seem to render Hindi. Is there
a font for that?

No such font exists. You can try DejaVu Sans or FreeSerif for best coverage.
