Mumbai, Aug 15 (IANS) India is celebrating 75 years of its freedom from British colonial rule. As the nation soaks in the grand celebrations, B-town isn't far behind in expressing their love for the nation and marking the special day on their social media.
While Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan hoisted the Indian tricolour at his residence, Mannat, on Sunday evening under the 'Har Ghar Tiranga' initiative. On Monday, global star Priyanka Chopra Jonas shared a video in the story section of her Instagram.
The video shows paper cutting of an old newspaper which notified about India finally getting the independent status. The headline read: "India Independent: British Rule Ends".
The newspaper cutting is followed by a monochrome clip of the Indian tricolour being hoisted in Delhi's Red Fort in the past, followed by coloured video clip of the flag hoisting signifying the present day. Priyanka wrote on the video: "#HappyIndependenceDay".
On the work front, Priyanka was last seen on screen in 'The Matrix Resurrections'. She will be seen in the Russo Brothers' upcoming series 'Citadel'.
Heard was found by a jury in Fairfax, Virginia, to have defamed her ex-husband with an article in which she claimed she was a victim of domestic abuse. Depp received $15 million in damages, while Heard received $2 million in compensatory damages after she countersued for $100 million.
The Oscars have struggled with their messaging and fallout after the incident. Criticism was heated from Academy members and Hollywood industry professionals regarding the decision to allow the 'King Richard' actor and producer to accept his statuette and speak for several minutes uninterrupted.

Actor and stand-up comedian Bob Saget, who is popularly remembered as Danny Tanner from the 1990s sitcom 'Full House', has died at the age of 65. He passed away on Sunday at the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Orlando, Florida, police confirmed to variety.com.
His death was announced by the Foreign Affairs Minister of Bahamas, Fred Mitchell, prompting an outpouring of tributes for the actor who'll forever be remembered for the characters he played in 'Guess Who's Coming to Dinner', 'In the Heat of the Night', and 'Lilies of the Field'.
The film's director, Joel Souza, who was also injured in the incident, has survived after being treated for his injuries, but the 42-year-old cinematographer was not as fortunate.
