“The doctors were saying that it was impossible to recover from the illness. But, I am thankful to my fans for their love and blessings of Lord Jagannath that I have returned to Odisha following treatment,” the actor said.

Papu Pom Pom has acted in several Odia films and carved a niche in the industry with his acting skills, especially in the field of comic.
