This world is beautiful and, by love we can eradicate all the hatred from this world, and thus it a better place to live in. Even though I loved Shaheed, I don't really celebrate Independence Day as such.

We should utmost value our Independence Day and should become better citizens. It's only if we take the pledge and the initiative of becoming better citizens, our country will improve. And my favourite patriotic film is Rang De Basanti.

We have to come together in the coming elections to make sure that we have a strong government. Because, until and unless we don't give mandate to the single party, we can't really progress. I think we haven't made any as such good patriotic film till know.

We should completely become selfless and should work towards the growth of the country. I think each person's small step will make a huge difference. I just cannot recollect any patriotic film but 'Ae Mere Watan Ke Logo' is my favorite patriotic song.

I think everyone should enjoy the freedom that we have got due to the pain and trauma that our leaders underwent for us. And, my favorite patriotic films are Kranti & Purab Aur Paschim
