His film Sri Sri Mahalaxmi Puja featured amateur artists from all over Odisha. In 1959, Kabiraj Krushna Chandra Tripathy Sharma of Aska (Ganjam) did. The urge to break free from this dependence was on. The wait for the second Odia film was long & took 13 years for the second Odia film “Lalita” (1949) to hit the screens soon followed by Shri Jagannath (1950). Initially, Odia cinema made a slow start because the industry had to depend on the infrastructure & facilities available in Kolkata. He never thought of any monetary aspect behind film making, but took it as a challenge to dream of film making in a state like Odisha. As a tribute to him, his birthday is celebrated in Odisha as birthday of Odia Film industry since the first Odia movie “Sita Bibaha” was released on this very day in 1936 by a well known Ram Leela artist named Mohan Sundar DebGoswami & with it the initial start-up concept in film making in Odisha was laid. He is best remembered for his contribution towards creation of separate Odia state on linguistic basis. April 28th is Utkal Gourab Madhusudan Das’s birthday.
