Yes it's correct, after mandarin, Bengali is the 2nd most spoken in Asia.

I believe it is actually Mandarin, Hindi, then Bengali as far as Asia is concerned. Globally, it is 6.

I always thought I'd be hindi with mandarin/Chinese as first

Either way, being proud of the number of people who speak your language is stupid.
You are just being proud of over population.
