Marathi? Why I can enter it and you cannot? I never install anything specially, just use "us-en" culture... Marathi is popular enough to be supported by all modern systems by default, with major Unicode UTFs.

You need to use Unicode SQL data types, such as nchar, nvarchar or ntext:

You need to learn at least basics of Unicode; it looks like you have a very vague idea of how it works, if any idea at all:
