The 75th year of Indian Independence Day is here and it’s needless to say, the feelings of patriotism soar exceptionally high on the 15th of August. This day is to commemorate the great sacrifices made by the freedom fighters who freed us from the colonial rule of the British raj. This year celebrate the day a little differently, give something patriotic to your friends or family to evoke a feeling of patriotism all year round. Remember to go for something useful and not purely symbolic as that can’t be used all year round.
Personalised keychains
A keychain is a utility item needed by all, be it car keys, cupboard keys or keys to your apartment. A keychain is an item that stares you in the face whenever you are about to leave the house. Therefore, you can never go wrong with this idea. A customized key chain with the image of our tricolour flag, a favourite freedom fighter, anything related to the Indian army or a famous saying that one imbibes is also a way to depict love for the nation all year round. It honours the sacrifice made during the freedom struggle as well as appreciates the courage of the Indian army at the border.
Customized T-shirts
Most friends and families get together and celebrate this holiday together – either they go for a picnic or meet at someone’s place. Carrying customized t-shirts for the whole crew would be a great way to celebrate the day. These t-shirts can be white with images and slogans related to Independence Day or one can select orange, white and green t-shirts for the entire jing bang. It also lends a little theme to the entire celebration.
Tricoloured food
Another thing that adds an element of fun to the Independence Day get together is themed food. Right from a tri coloured frosted cake to tri coloured mithais, one gets a lot of food options to celebrate this day. If you are hosting people on this day there are many dishes that you can serve using orange, white and green colours and make the entire spread look very patriotic.
