Doesn't that happen normally when you live in different tribes within the same land? I know during the time of Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him the Arab tribes of his time spoke slightly different dialects hence why the Quran was revealed in different dialects.

Bangladeshis are genetically similar to other population groups in Indian sub continent. Just remember that linguistic features do not dictate genetics. Race is rather a political term than scientific. The gene pool of the Indian sub continent stays consistent and largely indigenous despite various migrations over the millennia. Population genetics is part of the human evolution and it is too strong to be changed by few invasions. Evolution takes place over hundreds of thousands of years and not in few hundred years.
