One of the most well-known Odia authors of the early 20th century is Kanhu Charan Mohanty. His contributions will have an impact on future generations.

Being from an elite caste, he emphasised the marginalised in his art and emphasised issues about growing inequality and differences in society. He was destined to have a significant impact and steer the direction of Odia literature when he was born on August 11th, 1906, in the Cuttack town of Nagabali. He published his debut novel, Utshabe Bysane, in 1923–1924. Mohanty published 56 books over the course of his six-decade literary career, which spanned 1930–1985.
