Why regional languages need more than a language setting
A caption tool for Indian languages has to get three things right: recognising the speech, drawing the script, and keeping long words on screen. Recognition is handled by speech models for each language; drawing is handled by fonts built for each script; fitting is handled by splitting speech into short phrases you can resize in the editor.
Here all three are in place, so a Malayalam or Tamil caption gets the same care as a Hinglish one.
