This tribal poet and singer from Kandhamal district, Purnamasi Jani is among the six persons from Odisha who will receive the Padma awards this year. Jani has never received formal education, but her songs have reached masses and have addressed pertinent social issues. Jani has sung over 10,000 devotional songs in her lifetime.
Jani hails from Charipada village under Khajuripada Block of Kandhamal district. Born in Talapada village in a tribal community, Jani moved to the Charipada village after her marriage. She has two daughters and her husband had passed away a few years after their wedding.
Jani came in contact with a saint in the village, following which she developed interest towards singing devotional songs. Jani used to constantly hum devotional songs, but there was something unusual about her voice. What is surprising is that Jani never goes back to the song that she has already sung. Since then, it’s been over 50 years and Jani still loves singing. Such unflinching dedication to the craft has earned her the title of Tadisaru Bai locally. Jani has dedicated her Padma Shri award to the almighty.
