Hiba said that this year, she plans to celebrate Independence day with her family and friends.
'Every year, in our society (building compound) we hoist the flag and sing National Anthem with pride, after which we celebrate the day eating tasty food, enjoying, etc. This year, I will be on a day off this Independence Day from the shoot and celebrate it with my family and friends.
I would like to wish all my fans a very Happy Independence Day and urge them to free themselves from anything stopping them from achieving their dreams. I believe freedom is everybody’s right, and now is the time to be who you are,'she said.
Reminiscing about her childhood memories of celebrating Independence day,
actress Sayantani Ghosh said,'Independence Day is engraved in my mind, soul, and heart ever since I was a child. Whenever I hear our National Anthem being sung or any patriotic song being played, it gives me a spirit of unity and being one as a nation.
Flag hoisting is one of the most important memories I have from my childhood for Independence Day. I prefer wearing a white Salwar-kameez and pair it with saffron or an orange dupatta.'
Talking about her plans for Independence day this year, Sayantani Ghosh, who assays the role of Daljeet Bagga in the television show Tera Yaar Hoon Main, said,
this year, I will be staying at home with my friends and family and have a nice hearty meal.'

Paying tribute to the Freedom fighters who contributed to securing freedom, Siddharth Nigam said, 'Independence Day is a reminder that the freedom we have today is because of the sacrifices involved in it, and it gives me a lot of pride to be an Indian.
We are independent today because of the valiant efforts that our freedom fighters have put through to bring us this liberty. I believe it shouldn’t be only these patriotic days that evoke patriotism in our lives, but every day of our lives should be an attempt to make our country and its freedom warriors proud.'
For actress Anju Jadhav, who is seen playing a key role in the slice of life show Wagle Ki Duniya, Independence Day attaches a lot of importance as her father was an Army officer.

'Independence Day marks the long struggle of our freedom fighters and inspires the young generation to serve the country. Hence, the Independence Day celebration is important to keep the spirit of patriotism alive. My Father served in the Indian Army, so this day has always been extra special to me, and I strongly connect myself to it.
The best part about the celebration was pinning mini flags to our uniforms, getting sweets, fancy dress competitions and stage dramas at school. These are some of my fondest memories of childhood which I will always cherish. '
On her plns to celebrate Independence day this year, she said,''this year, this day is more special as all the Olympians will be there as special guests. I have also planned to decorate my place with an Independence Day theme and invite my friends to have a small get together, play some games, watch patriotic movies, etc.
