The singer has shared that his mornings were spent watching the Republic Day on TV, and being mesmerised by the sheer artistic grandeur and the sense of pride.
He told IANS, "As a child, I used to watch the Republic Day parade on TV, the grandeur of the march, the stirring bands, the music, and the vibrant tableaux that beautifully showcased India's culture, progress, and unity. I was always in awe of the women soldiers' contingent, marching with strength, grace, and unwavering pride, redefining courage and leadership".
He further mentioned, "The spectacular air show soaring across the sky added to the magic, filling hearts with pride and excitement. Those mornings were truly special. This year, I'll be watching the parade with my kids, and it feels wonderfully nostalgic. Wishing everyone a very Happy Republic Day! May we continue to honour our Constitution and celebrate the spirit, strength, and pride of India together".
