Superstar Shah Rukh Khan vowed to follow the basic values that the Indian national flag stands for, on the occasion of Independence Day on Saturday.

"Strength & Courage. Peace & Truth. Fertility & Growth. Life in Movement. My country stands for these values. I promise to do the same on this day of 15th August and forever. We don't need anymore guidelines for being a true Indian, than these laid down by the colours of our Indian flag. Happy Independence Day to all. Jai Hind," SRK wrote on Instagram.

Senior actor and BJP MP Hema Malini on Saturday greeted the citizens of the nation on its 74th Independence Day. The 'Sholay' actor extended her warm-filled wishes, through a video message posted on Twitter.

Actor Vidya Balan pitched in her support for 'vocal for local' and urged everybody to embrace the Indian silks on the occasion of 74th Independence Day. The 'Kahaani' actor shared a picture of herself on Instagram, donned in a bright pink saree. She teamed up the elegant saree with golden earrings. Taking it to the captions, Balan urged people to celebrate Independence Day, with the "unity in diversity of Indian Silks from Assam to Gujarat and Jammu and Kashmir to Tamil Nadu".

This Aparshakti Khurana video completely sums up our Independence Day spirit. He writes, "The three colors which when apart, do nothing but when together, fills the heart of every Indian with pride. Bowing down to these colors, today and always."

Mahesh Babu tweeted, "The day that marked the dawn of a new beginning... When Independence became our greatest victory! May this freedom lead our way. Let's always be grateful. Happy #IndependenceDay to all my fellow Indians!"

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!"
