How do I dispay Rupee symbols in a TextView?

android

Solution

Android's system font does not support the Rupee symbol. You need to embed it in your own using font embedding.

Follow this tutorial for the font embedding:

Problem

Can anyone please help me to identify how to insert rupee symbol in a TextView. I have tried using \u20B9 as suggested in one of the threads, but it did not help. Thanks in advance.
