Thanks for your reply.

Here's what I'm asking for.

Hindi:

First of all, the pairs with nuqta (a dot underneath) and without it should be searchable the same way Roman letters with diacritics and without are searchable. The letters are not identical but So that if a user typed खून, ख़ून would also be listed.
 * क़/क ख़/ख ग़/ग ज़/ज फ़/फ ड़/ड ढ़/ढ
 * Words containing diacritics ॉ (candra), ् (virama) should be equal to those without them: चॉकलेट / चाकलेट, सन् / सन. Similar to the way English words entries with a space are equal to those having a hyphen (-) between them.

Arabic:

ـَ fatHa, ـِ kasra, ـُ Damma, ـْ sukuun, ـّ shadda, ـٰ dagger 'alif.
 * Different forms of alif: ا, أ, إ, ﺁ and ٱ should be searchable together, e.g. أمس and امس, etc.
 * Words containing any of these diacritics could be searchable as if they don't have them and the other way around:
