It's a little bit off topic but, if I were you, I wouldn't spend so much of your time on these videos.
30 Minute Speaking Exercises
Record yourself speaking in front of your computer. Rewatch the video and write down any words you didn’t know how to say and any phrases or sentences that you didn’t know how to structure. Add these words to your vocab list, and work on these sentences with your language partner. Get recordings for both from your language partner.
Exercise 1:
Freely speak about any subject.
Exercise 2:
Tell a story from your life.
Exercise 3:
Read an article in Bangla and verbally summarize after every two paragraphs.
Exercise 4:
Watch a video in Bangla and speak and summarize what it was about.

Accent Exercise
Read an article out loud in Bangla. If you run into a word you don’t know, pull it up on google translate and spend some time mimicking the pronunciation. After every three paragraphs, pull up a clip of a native speaker whose accent you want. Listen for 2 or 3 minutes, then continue reading out loud.
Video Exercises
Pick 5 videos about 10 min apiece. Watch them every single day for 30 days. It helps if you have a transcript in Bangla to read along with the videos. The vocabulary from these 5 videos will be your base vocabulary for the next 30 days.
Pick ten videos on ten different subjects that are about ten minutes long. If you can read transcripts while watching that would be best. Watch all ten videos every day for 30 days. After watching, pick one video and record yourself summarizing the video (see the speaking exercises above).

Yes, that's more like it. Though that fellow looks like a bit of a villain.
