Description

Description

When converting Bangla (Bengali) text into a slug using slugify, the output does not generate an expected transliterated slug. Instead, it either returns an empty string or improperly formatted characters.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Run the following code:
    const slugify = require("slugify");
    console.log(slugify("বাংলা ভাষা পরীক্ষা"));
    
    
Expected output:

A transliterated slug such as bangla-bhasha-porikkha

Actual Output

slug: Empty String

Expected Behavior

Bangla text should be converted into a readable, SEO-friendly slug using transliteration instead of being ignored or broken.
