As India gets ready to celebrate its 73rd Independence Day, Bollywood actors and celebrities are busy sending in their patriotic wishes for the same. Interestingly this year (2019), the nation has two big reasons to rejoice in the same day. While we celebrate the day when India was granted its freedom, we also have Raksha Bandhan celebrations to look forward to.  It was on this day in 1947 that India finally won its fight against the Britishers who ruled us for over 200 years. Independence Day has its own significance and it's not merely a national holiday. But merging the holiday with a family outing where siblings get another reason to annoy each other makes the day even more special. Independence Day 2019 Patriotic Songs Playlist: 10 New-Age Desh-Bhakti Geet to Celebrate 72 Years of Freedom in India.
