10 Bollywood dialogues which will fill you with patriotism this Independence Day

New Delhi: There is no feeling in the world that matches the essence of being free. Free to make your own choices, free to live a life on your own terms, free to enjoy rights that add to the joy of life. However, we Indians earned this privilege after years of struggle.

Talking about patriotism, Bollywood isn't left behind either. Hindi movies have been known to reflect patriotic stories that were nourished on blood, sweat and sacrifices. With an array of movies centred on the idea of patriotism, Bollywood has given us some classics.

This Independence Day, let these movies instil a feeling of patriotism in you.

Here we are  presenting 10 famous Bollywood dialogues that will compel you to get up and work for bringing a positive change in India:

1. Aap namak ka haq adda kijiye, mai mitti ka haq adda karta hun

From Aamir Khan starrer 'Mangal Pandey', this dialogue tells us that the independence we enjoy is the result of the sleepless nights our forefathers spent.

4. Tum doodh mangoge hum kheer denge … tum Kashmir mangoge hum cheer denge

This dialogue was symbolised the movie 'Maa Tujhe Salaam'. Every Indian felt the same way during the wars against Pakistan.

5.Mard marta hai toh apni aankhen tirange ki taraf karke marta hai … aur yeh sochta hai ki phir se is desh ke liye kab pehda hoon.

8. Mujhe states ke naam na sunai dete hai na dikhai dete hai … sirf ek mulk ka naam sunai deta hai I-N-D-I-A

'Chak De India' was basically  a film about promoting sports but nonetheless it didn't lack the patriotic colour. As Shah Rukh Khan addresses his team members, this dialogue only proves that India is the best example of unity in diversity.

9. Yeh Veer Shivaji, Rana Pratap jaise bahaduron ki sarzameen hai. Jise Bhagat Singh, Azad, Ashfaqullah Khan ne apne khoon se seencha hai. Humein koi tod nahin sakta… Hum Hindustani ek hain or ek hi rahenge. Aur desh ke har ek dushman ko milkar marenge.

Anil Kapoor starrer ‘Pukar' traces the story of a soldier who sacrificed everything to ensure his country was safe. And this quote talks about all those legendary soldiers who did the same during tough times so that we woke up to a free country.
