As India marks its 78th Independence Day, actor Vivaan Arora, known for his work in Punjabi films such as Dramebaaz Kalakaar and Haq: The Right, a music video with singer Tochi Raina, and television shows like Supercop Super Villain, Ashi, and the horror anthology Aahat, shares his thoughts on what freedom truly means in today’s world. While many treat 15th August as just a holiday with patriotic songs and social media posts, Vivaan reflects on the deeper responsibilities of citizenship, the inspiring journeys of freedom fighters, and how each individual can contribute to building a stronger, more conscientious nation.
“I feel patriotism today has become more about display than depth. We see flags on social media and slogans on this one day, but real patriotism is in the small, consistent things we do for the country all year. Paying taxes honestly, following laws, respecting public spaces — these may not sound glamorous, but they’re the true ways to honour the freedom we enjoy. Independence Day should remind us that freedom is a living responsibility, not just a historic gift.”
“For me, Bhagat Singh has always been a huge inspiration. He was so young yet so aware of the bigger picture. His clarity of thought, his fearlessness, and his belief in the power of ideas are qualities I deeply admire. He didn’t just fight with weapons — he fought with conviction, intellect, and vision for a better India.”
“Be proud of our history, but also be conscious of the present we’re creating. Freedom isn’t just about what we inherited from our heroes — it’s about the values we pass on to the next generation. Let’s protect our environment, treat each other with respect, and make sure that when we talk about India’s future, we’re building one our freedom fighters would be proud of.”
