render bengali font in vim

Hello friends,
I am trying to write in bengali(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengali_alphabet)
using gvim. The font rendering is not correct.
I have tried gedit, and rendering is correct there.
To compare, see http://imagebin.org/261702 for gedit and http://imagebin.org/261703 for gvim (all the non-english is actually bengaly, see the difference in eg line number 590)

and if that helps:
$vi --version
