Arnab and Mohsin, sorry for the rather belated response, but I believe NYC has a Bangla-speaking club, where novice Bangla speakers can carry on conversations with native Bangla speakers and gain fluency. I don't know if other big cities have similar institutions.
I'd also like to plug Radice's Teach Yourself Bengali. My (bideshi) wife used that rather effectively to learn to read, write, and speak Bangla.

I dont think London has one of these 'Bengali speaking clubs' like in New York, the elderly people are the main people who still speak Bengali mostly during conversations, I have to admit many people who have moved into London have not yet fully gained knowledge of the English language, many need translaters during many times as far as I have witnessed, but we (young) try to teach English though at home, which is a good step but I think it is a good thing to keep the main language in roots for the future
