"International Font" option has been renamed to 'Translate UI' (which is more explicit for most cases), but it's the same as in 2.8.

And unfortunately, Tamil is part of those 'complex scripts' that change their glyphs depending on neighbor ones. Blender does not fully support those currently, this is a known limitation, not a bug. Thanks for the report anyway.
