What a moment for Utkalika-Folk Tale of Odisha at Bali Jatra by OSUK CIC #! 🌊💙
NDTV stepping in to cover our journey felt like a win for every Odia soul keeping folk dance alive abroad.
From the colours to the beats to the community spirit—thank you NDTV for giving Odisha’s heritage a stage beyond borders. 🪘✨ Saswati Dash Smita Debata

**“A freeze moment from Bali Jatra 2025 for Team Utkalika — but this one frame holds a thousand emotions! 💫
This capture is more than just a pose; it’s our joy, our excitement, and our pure Odia energy wrapped into one shot. Performing at Bali Jatra away from home felt like carrying a piece of Odisha to a global stage, and every beat, every cheer reminded us of our roots.

The Odia rhythms echoed, the crowd smiled along,
and our hearts felt full — proud, grateful, and glowing.
