The Raees actor, on Instagram, wrote that he is celebrating Independence Day at home “with our future generation of gentle, kind & pure Indians”.
Meanwhile, Akshay dedicated his post to the brave soldiers who “fought for our freedom and to those who fight for us day and night at the borders to keep us safe”. Ranveer, on the other hand, posted a picture of himself hoisting the flag with a group of children.

Filmmaker Karan Johar also celebrated Independence Day by posing for a memorable picture with his mother Hiroo Yash Johar and his twins – Yash and Roohi, in the backdrop of the flag. But guess what we loved the most – of course, Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan’s adorable son Taimur’s wish.
The paparazzi photographed Taimur, cute as a button, in a tricolor tee on August 15. Needless to mention, pictures of Taimur went viral on social media soon after they were made available and were circulated vehemently by his fans.
