Item girl Rani Panda fumes over obscene dance performance at Khandagiri Jatra Mahotsav

Bhubaneswar, Feb 7: Controversial Odia Jatra (opera) item girl Rani Panda has fumed over performance of obscene dance performance during the ongoing Khandagiri Jatra Mahotsav. The controversy’s favourite daughter has questioned the role of Commissionerate police, Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation (BMC) and Jatra organising committee for imposing ban on her Jatra troupe and herself. The BMC, Commmissionerate police and organising comittee has banned Jatra Sachidanandam from playing opera at the Jatra Mahotsav on allegations of performing nudity. They also have imposed restrictions on obscene dance performance during the Mahotsav that began on February 1. But, the controversial actress claimed that nudity and obscene dance performance has turned the centre of attraction and it is an open secret. Then why a ban was imposed on her and her party from taking part in the ongoing Jatra Mahotsav, she questioned. She alleged that it was nothing but a conspiracy against her as her opera house is climbing the ladder of success leaving them behind. It is nobody’s secret that item girl Rani Panda sets fire when she climbs on stage. The sizzling dance moves of Rani brought her overnight popularity and since then she has been in limelight. Setting a new trend in Jatra item songs through her seductive dance moves she has dominated the Jatra industry in just few years. A complaint was lodged against her at Khandagiri police station last year as she bit the ear of a young viewer during an item song performance.
