Today, India celebrates its 77th Independence Day, with utmost pride and joy in our hearts. Red Fort will bear witness to the iconic celebrations of 76 years of Independence. Every Indian's head is held high today as we hoist the national flag and sing the National Anthem to honour the struggles and battles that our freedom fighters underwent to make our country free.
Breaking the shackles of slavery after 90 years of mutiny, bloodshed, and political negotiations, in 1947 on this day, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru hoisted the National Flag of Independent India.
Today, Bollywood stars painted social media with colours of freedom, and several B-town and Television celebrities including Amitabh Bachchan took to their official Twitter and Instagram accounts to extend warm wishes to their fans.
Kiara Advani celebrated Independence Day by sharing a video of herself with the BSF (Border Security Force) as she captioned the clip, “Happy Independence Day my fellow countrymen. While every year our hearts swell with pride on this day remembering all the brave hearts of India, this year my experience was personal and one that I will cherish forever.”
Anupam Kher shared a video of the Indian National flag and narrated the history of the Tricolour. He tweeted in Hindi, which translated into English, reads, “I am Tricolour...I often think that if ever our Tricolour gets a chance to express its feelings to the countrymen, what will the Tricolour say to us? On the auspicious occasion of Independence Day, in this video, I have tried to address the countrymen on behalf of our national flag! See and share! Happy Independence Day to all Indians! Jai Hind! Long live Mother India.”
