We study the superconducting phase with two component order parameter scenario, such as, $d_{x^2-y^2} + e^{i\theta}s_{\alpha}$, where $\alpha = xy, x^2+y^2$. We show, that in absence of orthorhombocity, the usual $d_{x^2-y^2}$ does not mix with usual $s_{x^2+y^2}$ symmetry gap in an anisotropic band structure. But the $s_{xy}$ symmetry does mix with the usual d-wave for $\theta =0$. The d-wave symmetry with higher harmonics present in it also mixes with higher order extended $s$ wave symmetry. The required pair potential to obtain higher anisotropic $d_{x^2-y^2}$ and extended s-wave symmetries, is derived by considering longer ranged two-body attractive potential in the spirit of tight binding lattice. We demonstrate that the dominant pairing symmetry changes drastically from $d$ to $s$ like as the attractive pair potential is obtained from longer ranged interaction. More specifically, a typical length scale of interaction $\xi$, which could be even/odd multiples of lattice spacing leads to predominant $s/d$ wave symmetry. The role of long range interaction on pairing symmetry has further been emphasized by studying the typical interplay in the temperature dependencies of these higher order $d$ and $s$ wave pairing symmetries.
