Veteran Players Honour Freedom Fighters on 80th Independence Day

Former stars VVS Lakshman and Anil Kumble joined the national discourse by paying tribute to those who secured India’s independence.

Lakshman’s message called for the nation to celebrate the spirit of liberty while remembering the sacrifices that made it possible. Kumble’s short note read, “Independence Day greetings, Jai Hind.”

Both remarks reinforced a call for a stronger, more united India as the country looks ahead to future challenges.
