That's perfect! Thank you.

I downloaded couple of Gujarati fonts from here:
http://www.lipikaar.com/support/download-unicode-fonts-for-gujarati, and
was successfully able to switch through them.

Note to self: From C-h f set-fontset-font, TARGET is what's being set to
'gujarati here.

So to get a list of valid scripts/languages:

(message "%S"
         (mapcar (lambda (lst) (car lst)) script-representative-chars))
