Mumbai: The Odia New Year, celebrated as Maha bishuba sankranti or paana sankrantiholds immense cultural and religious significance in Odisha. This festival marks the astrological transition of the Sun from Meena Rashi (Pisces) to Mesha Rashi (Aries), signifying the beginning of a new solar year. In 2025, Pana Sankranti will be observed on Monday, 14th April.
Pana Sankranti is a day of spiritual reflection, community bonding, and cultural rituals. Devotees begin the day with holy dips in sacred rivers such as the Ganga, Yamuna, and Godavari, seeking purification and divine blessings.
A central element of the celebration is the preparation and offering of a traditional sweet drink called ‘Pana’, made from ingredients like bael (wood apple), jaggery, water, and milk. This cooling drink symbolises the essence of life and is shared among family members and neighbours, fostering unity and goodwill.
People consume Satvik food (pure vegetarian fare without onions and garlic), and the day is spent in meditation, prayer, and self-purification. The emphasis is placed on positive thoughts, noble actions, and inner purity, reinforcing the values of compassion and humility.
On this auspicious day, people worship the Sun God to honour the cosmic transition. Additionally, deities such as Lord Shiva, Lord Hanuman, and Goddess Kali are venerated with devotion. Charity and service form an integral part of the day, as devotees engage in acts of kindness—distributing food, water, and clothes to the poor and needy.
This celebration is not just the beginning of a new calendar cycle—it is a spiritual reset, encouraging individuals to align themselves with Dharma (righteousness) and live in harmony with nature and society.
Celebrate this Odia New Year by spreading joy and love. Share these heartfelt wishes, quotes, and images with your family and friends to honour tradition, strengthen bonds, and embrace the divine spirit of this sacred festival.
