Bhubaneswar: BJP candidate from Puri Lok Sabha constituency Sambit Patra on Friday sang the Telugu version of the hit song “Tum Mile, Dil Khile” from the bilingual Telugu-Hindi action thriller film Criminal, at a rally in Puri. The idea was to win over the sizeable Telugu population in Puri.
Puri has a sizeable Telugu Population as well. While Campaigning amidst them sang a famous Telugu number on demand. The frenzy in the crowd was palpable, don’t believe ? A must watch! Lots of love to my adorable Telugu friends. @BJP4Odisha #IndiaBoleModiDobara #SambitPatra4Puri pic.twitter.com/ULI8xJdnhU

The BJD and Naveen Patnaik have been ruling over Odisha for close to two decades. The state was largely untouched by the Modi wave of 2014. But Patra told Republic TV that Odisha in 2019 was different from what it was in 2014.
