Anantha by Ranjan Shivakumar of EthnoMultimedia & EPICS is a free South Asian script-style display font with a dense, ceremonial silhouette. Broad vertical strokes meet hooked tops, deep curves, and sharply cut interior spaces. Rounded and angular forms recall ornate regional sign lettering without losing their Latin structure.
Designers working on South Asian cultural events will find it especially apt. Its carved-looking weight connects festival posters, restaurant branding, and film graphics through a shared sense of spectacle and tradition.
