Mangal is a Microsoft Windows font. AFAIK, you can't legally embed it into an ePub that you plan to distribute on the Internet. You may want to use a free font, e.g. Annapurna SIL.

Calibre usually does a great job converting .docx files to .epub files, but it's not perfect. To exclude Calibre as the source of your problems try the following:
  • Export the Word document as a filtered .html document and add it to a new book in Sigil.
  • Export your book with Toxaris's e-Book Tools Word add-in.
  • Set the document language metadata to whatever Indic language the epub is in and also add a corresponding xml:lang attribute to the html tag of each .html file.

If none of this makes a difference post the html code of the lines with broken words.
