you can call block in template directly

$bestseller = $this->getLayout()->getBlock('bestSeller/index');
$bestseller->getBestsellerProducts();

If this template file "bestseller.phtml" is directly associated with your block. like below example:

<block type="bestSeller/index" name="bestseller" template="bestseller.phtml "/>

then you can access all the functions of this block class GauravKhatri_BestSeller_Block_Index in associated template using $this. like example:

$this->getBestsellerProducts();
