Video credit - Siba Satapathy Video Stitching - Atasi Parichha Patanayak I have been die hard fan of Kabi Samrat Upendra Bhanja. I owe my love for him to this place called Bhanjanagar, where I spent good long 17 years, the formative years of my life. The year round discussions, seminars, speeches, debate, eassy , bhanja sangeet competitions held at Bhanja Sahitya Parishada naturally inclined me to learn about KabiSamrat, sing his songs and eventually develope a deep affinity towards Bhanja literature. Ages after leaving Bhanjanagar I got an opportunity to talk about Kabi Samrat at a literary platform called ‘Asantu Pathakatie Heba’ (ଆସନ୍ତୁ ପାଠକଟିଏ ହେବା) held at OSA, Chicago 2023. My sincere thanks to Siba Satapathy, my husband, for recording the videos and my friend Atasi Parichha Pattanayak for stitching the videos and Smt Kanak Hota for giving me this oppurtunity. #Tapasimohapatra #UpendraBhanja #BaidehishaBilasa #BitalakuAlinganaKariJanhabi
