Author's note

ML-TT Karthika by C-DAC is a free Malayalam display font with broad, rounded forms and an even monoline weight. Generous loops and long horizontal sweeps set its pace.

It suits cultural event posters as readily as educational publishing, where the open shapes feel direct and current. The same clear curves fit regional branding and digital graphics for Malayalam-speaking audiences. In festival material, the lettering can become part of a flowing border or illustrated emblem.
