About
ଆମ ବିଷୟରେ
Wherever we live, our culture travels with us.
Odia in Hyderabad started with thirty friends in a living room in 2019. It is now the largest gathering of Odia people in the city.
Why we exist
Hyderabad gave many of us our first job, our first apartment and our first taste of independence. What it did not give us was Nuakhai with our families, Raja swings in the courtyard, or the sound of Odia in a crowded room. So we built it here.
Our mission is simple: keep Odia culture living, visible and joyful in Hyderabad, and make it easy for anyone — Odia or not — to walk in and belong.
