There's also "Charis SIL"; it includes all necessary characters to  
write Sanskrit in transliteration. You might want to try this sample,  
which also shows how fontspec can be used.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setromanfont{Charis SIL}

\begin{document}

nr̥̄ṇām agnīnām ákr̥ṇot saṃsāraḥ manām̐si  
havīm̐ṣi ṭaṅkaḥ ḍamaraḥ aṇḍam śatruḥ
	
\end{document}

Best wishes,
