I am able to get outputs in multiple scripts (Devanagari, Kannada, Roman, Telugu), but not Bengali, using the xetex-itrans package.  The source file has to be in ITRANS rather than accented-Roman (IAST) format.  See the attached for an example of a source and output.

This should be extensible relatively easily to Bengali, Gujarati, Oriya, etc., though perhaps not to Tamil.
