Bhubaneswar: The revamped music video of Odia song ‘Utkal Janani’ featuring Governor of Odisha, Professor Ganeshi Lal with touch of his voice has been released on the occasion of Utkal Divas (April 1) today.
Professor Ganeshi Lal has once expressed his deep penchant for music. Whenever he gets a chance, Lal, a renowned academician, has never shied away from mesmerising crores of Odias with his voice.
Having shown his music flair for ‘Ae Mati Odisha’, ‘Ae Jati Odia’ earlier, now Prof Lal has lent his voice for this song.
“Odia is the language of Lord Jagannath. I have always tried to learn this divine language which is very sweet. Now I can read Odia newspapers and understand if anyone talks in Odia,” Lal said while recording the song.
