Priyanka Mitra – Singer | Performer | 

Hi, I’m Priyanka Mitra—a singer, performer, and a firm believer in the power of following your heart.

I started my professional journey as a Senior Software Engineer after completing my B.Tech in Computer Science from Biju Patnaik University of Technology. While I had a promising corporate career ahead of me, something inside always pulled me toward music. That “something” eventually became everything.

 

Trained in Hindustani classical music under the guidance of Guru Gopal Chandra Panda, I earned a National Level Scholarship and became a Sangeet Visharad. Music wasn’t just a hobby—it was my soul speaking. So, I took a leap of faith, left the comfort of the corporate world, and stepped fully into the music industry.

 

Since then, my journey has been nothing short of incredible. I’ve had the joy of recording songs in eight languages and singing for films in Hindi, Marathi, Bengali, and Oriya. A turning point came when I became a semi-finalist on Indian Idol Season 6—an unforgettable experience that gave me national recognition and boosted my confidence as an artist.

 

Over the years, I’ve performed in more than 2000 live shows around the world, sharing the stage with music legends like Pyarelal Ji, Amit Kumar, Shaan, Javed Ali, Suresh Wadkar, and Udit Narayan. In addition to playback singing, I’ve also released independent singles, sung for TV serials, and voiced numerous jingles.

 

This journey hasn’t always been easy—but every challenge, every performance, every note has made me more certain of my purpose. Music, for me, is more than just a career—it’s a way to connect, heal, and inspire.

 

And as I continue to explore new sounds and stories through my music, I hope to keep touching hearts and creating moments that last forever. Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned—it’s that when you truly follow your heart, everything else falls beautifully into place.
