"Parab" is OK, but shouldn't we make a Movie on Utkal Divas? I was talking with few of my Junior Odia Collegues in my workplace, and they have no Idea what Utkal Divas is. All they know about April 1st is its called "April Fool" day, and they try to make fools of each-other. When Every other Indian State is so Proud of their own culture and Language, so much so, for an example, some like Kannadiga's in Bengaluru don't hesitate to openly force it on others. And in our case we do not even remember how Utkal Divas came to... 4 1 replies
