Hello Chatterbox Team,

First of all, thank you for developing such an impressive open-source multilingual TTS model, supporting 23 diverse languages with state-of-the-art voice quality and features like zero-shot voice cloning and emotion exaggeration control.

I noticed with great enthusiasm that many languages are supported, but Bengali (Bangla) is currently not listed among the supported languages. Bengali is the 7th most spoken language in the world, with over 230 million speakers globally, primarily in Bangladesh and the Indian state of West Bengal.

Adding Bengali support would greatly help the multilingual TTS community and enable diverse applications for Bengali speakers, including audiobooks, voice assistants, and media content generation, especially for underrepresented languages in open-source TTS.

Thank you very much for your consideration.
