Today, on 15th August, the whole of India is celebrating 78th Independence Day. Everyone is immersed in the celebration of independence. This day reminds every Indian of the first morning of the new India when after almost 200 years, the reins of power came into the hands of an Indian. However, on August 14, British India was divided on communal lines, giving rise to two independent nations – India and Pakistan.
Now, the video of @vish.music, a musician who united both Indians and Pakistanis in the United Kingdom, is going viral on Instagram. This video, posted two days ago, is of the streets of London where Vish is singing AR Rahman’s Bollywood song ‘Jai Ho…’ on the guitar and many Indians and Pakistanis are joining him carrying the flags of their respective countries. Are. Apart from this, some people holding UK flags are also seen there. Many people standing in the crowd are making videos of the scene.
Vish has written in the caption of the video – ‘When Indians and Pakistanis sing ‘Jai Ho…’ together in London. Let’s share this video for love and unity. We need each other in bad times.
When the video went viral, people started making lovely comments on it. One user wrote – ‘Divided by UK, United in UK’ i.e. UK broke and UK united. Another wrote – Music is the only thing that can break boundaries and connect hearts. One person wrote- Celebrating India’s independence in London is an irony. One user wrote – I am getting goosebumps after hearing this. Apart from this, people were also seen wishing Independence Day on the post.
Let us tell you that in a country like UK where a large number of Indians live, such beautiful scenes are seen mostly on Indian festivals where India comes together.
