Odia cinema, fondly known as Ollywood, is one of India's oldest and most culturally rich regional film industries. With roots tracing back to 1936 when the first Odia film Sita Bibaha was released, Odia cinema has evolved over nine decades into a vibrant industry that captivates millions of viewers across Odisha and beyond.

The Odia film industry is headquartered in Bhubaneswar, the capital of Odisha, producing over 40–60 films annually. Stars like Babushaan Mohanty, Elina Samantray, Sabyasachi Mishra, and Barsha Priyadarshini have become household names drawing massive box office numbers.

What makes Odia cinema unique is its deep connection to Odisha's cultural and spiritual identity — from devotional films set at the Jagannath Temple in Puri to contemporary thrillers in Bhubaneswar's streets.
