Apart from losing talented performance artists, the year has been tough on the Odia entertainment industry that was trying hard to stay relevant on the face of digital entertainment onslaught.
Besides, Covid-induced lockdowns and closure of theatres, cinema halls, multiplexes among other have spelled financial doom for many forcing them to change profession.
