Despite not knowing Odia language, their rendition of these two songs was crisp in terms of pronunciation and diction.  However, this is not the first time the sisters are going viral on the internet. Their music covers have made it to the trending charts in the past a number of times as well. Each cover is unique and different from the other episode.

Ankita and Antara started a series of ‘Balcony Concerts’ to keep their viewers entertained during the lockdown. The singers hold their own concerts from the balcony and make viewers’ day a little brighter without having to walk out of their house.
