Every Indian's head is held high today as we hoist the national flag and sing the National Anthem to honor 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. With COVID19 outspread, this year the celebrations are restricted but the 'josh is high'.
This year, the celebrations have gone digital with Indians taking to social media to wish each other on this day. Bollywood and Television celebrities including Amitabh Bachchan, Akshay Kumar, Vicky Kaushal, Sara Ali Khan, Kareena Kapoor Khan and others also took to social media to extend warm wishes to their fans.

Karan Johar, Suniel Shetty and Kunal Kemmu wish fans
Kunal Kemmu wrote, "All these years we celebrated Independence Day and celebrated our freedom, fought for bravely and selflessly by our forefathers.
Even though we knew what it would mean to not have freedom we never understood what it meant, until now. Freedom has a new meaning and it means so much more today as we as a country as a world and as a species fight this virus. We are no longer free to do anything and everything we please. A simple trip to the cinema hall or the gym is out of the question. It is a battle that we all are in together and the COVID19 frontline warriors are leading this fight for months now selflessly and fiercely. I am positive that we will win this fight soon. My only hope is that we enter the new world with a sense of a better understanding and compassion. We need to learn to be thankful for what we have. We celebrate independence today with a hope of reclaiming the freedom that we once enjoyed. Happy Independence Day!" -
