The chandrabindu virama sign is only part of the Devanagari extended library. However, when transcribing vedas into different scripts it would be nice if there was a "proper" chandrabindu virama glyph for each respective font. This would be very nice.

Do you have samples of this or other Vedic characters in Telugu or Kannada (or other scripts). I would like to get an idea of how they would be styled.

Unicode encodes some Vedic signs in the Devanagari Extended and some as Vedic Extensions block, with a variety of mappings with regard to script property and script extensions property. This makes it difficult to determine which characters might be expected to occur in texts in which scripts and in what form.

Usually in Kannada or Telugu, chandrabindu virama is not used ( as commonly for Yajurveda)
Instead Just ಗ್ಂ ಗ್ಗ್ ಗ್ are used
