Basinda by Satyajeet Jena, Somesh Satpathy, Ananya Nanda, J.P Wordsmith

Not every song from Basinda lingers, but Basinda is the one that stays. Behind the melody is the work of Somesh Satpathy, whose composition choices give Basinda its distinctive texture.

Satyajeet Jena, Somesh Satpathy, Ananya Nanda, J.P Wordsmith delivers the lyrics with a nuance that turns an already strong song into something genuinely moving. Anubhav Mohanty, Ashok Das, Sukanta Ratha, Pradyumna Lenka, Asish (Gulua), Sujit Paikray, Shakti Barala, Kalia Sandha, Anuradha Panigrahi, Mamata Tripathy are at the heart of Basinda, and Basinda captures their dynamic at its most compelling.

In 2025, Odia produced many songs, but Basinda was one of the handful that genuinely cut through. There is no right time to listen to Basinda. There is only the moment you press play and realise it was the right choice.

The 4:42 runtime feels perfectly judged — long enough to develop its ideas, short enough to compel a second play. It is, simply, one of the better songs to come from Odia in recent memory — and the numbers agree.
