We should keep participating in nation-building and welfare activities to show love towards our motherland : Aditya Deshmukh

Young actor Aditya Deshmukh who played Faizi in Ziddi Dil Maane shares his views on Independence Day. He says,”Independence Day means relishing the air of freedom and being thankful to everyone who made it possible for us to thrive in a rapidly developing country. We should open the gates of our emotions and show our love for the nation by cherishing this day. Our freedom fighters have given their blood and sweat to the country to free us from the British rulers and we should acknowledge that.” So what significance does it have for you?
He adds,”The celebrations of Independence Day, which I have taken part in, have instilled immense love for the country and the spirit of patriotism in me. When you actively participate in something, you feel like you belong to it. We should keep participating in nation-building and welfare activities to show our love towards the motherland. Whenever I go abroad I get homesick for my country. The tricolour and the national anthem always gives me goosebumps. Since my childhood
I have been fascinated by the story of Chandra Shekhar Azad. His fierceness, fearlessness and determination was the epitome of patriotism and inspiration for a lot of other freedom fighters in our history.” Speaking about his favourite patriotic movie Aditya says,”My all time favourite is Rang De Basanti. The way it has depicted our freedom fighters is unique. And the song Maa Tujhe Salaam by A R Rehman is my favourite patriotic song.”
