I think this can be implemented with some integration. Try to apply the following code. Avoid using send_keys.

js_code = """
  var elm = arguments[0], txt = arguments[1];
  elm.value += txt;
  elm.dispatchEvent(new Event('change'));
"""

your_text = '🚩 जय शिवराय महाराष्ट्र 🚩'
element = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@data-testid="input"]')
driver.execute_script(js_code, element, your_text)

I got this answer here.
