Odisha: Odia literature is the literature written in the
Odia language and predominantly originates in the
Indian state of Odisha. The region has been known at
different stages of history as Kalinga, Udra, Utkala or
Hirakhanda. Odisha was a vast empire in ancient and
medieval times, extending from the Ganges in the north
to the Godavari in the south. During British rule. The
present state of Odisha was formed in 1936. The
modern Odia language is formed mostly from Pali
words with significant Sanskrit influence. Odia is the
only Indo-European language of India other than
Sanskrit and the sixth Indian language that has been
conferred classical language status and forms the basis
of Odissi dance and Odissi music.
Maharashtra: Marathi literature is the body of
literature of Marathi, an Indo-Aryan language
spoken mainly in the Indian state of Maharashtra
and written in the Devanagari and Modi script.
Maharashtri Prakrit was the southern Prakrit that
was spoken in the banks of Narmada and Godavari.
Maharashtri was an offshoot of Vedic Sanskrit. The
earliest example of Maharashtri as a separate
language dates to approximately 3rd century BCE: a
stone inscription found in a cave at Naneghat, Junnar
in Pune district had been written in Maharashtri
using Brahmi script. A committee appointed by the
Maharashtra State Government to get the Classical
status for Marathi has claimed that Marathi existed
at least 2300 years ago.

MASARE TERATA PARBA”
Maharashtra: Maharashtrian or Marathi cuisine is
the cuisine of the Marathi people from the Indian
state of Maharashtra. It has distinctive attributes,
while sharing much with other Indian cuisines.

food to be more austere than others. As Maharashtra
is a big state, it is home to many religions. The state
also nurtures different traditions with diverse
communities. Apart from the main festivals of Eid,
Holi, Deewali and other festivals, which are
