Summay
The scent of Odisha is peculiar and quite different and yet not mulish. Scent knows no border and Odias know no delimitation. This cosmopolitanism of Odisha has a fragrance which has both the high and low notes, the steadfast & discursive narratives, the ingenue & chic souls and all the variants to make it a full-bodied fragrance. I and many I know, discuss about Odisha, pigeonholed to a few oft repeated topics - the ballyhoo of poverty, the rigmarole of Odissi, the inevitability of natural disasters and the helplessness of migration. But there is much more to Odisha - the youth brimming with contemporary thinking, the serendipity of brilliance in unknown quarters, the upswing of the economy, the promising industrialisation and most crucial, the response of common man to sudden changes around them.
