Every Indian is celebrating the 75th Independence Day today, and Btown celebrities are no different. Rashami Desai's thoughts on true freedom in 2022 will definitely make this occasion special for her fans. While the actress asserts that the biggest freedom we all need is from the pandemic and other health hazards that have drastically changed our lives in the last few years, she even expresses what the true essence of independence is for her.
Rashami shares, "I feel so much at peace to be a part of this free India. Just imagine two years ago in COVID times, we all had to stay indoors, movements were restricted and we got very little taste of what restrictions meant. Imagine those people who lived through the freedom struggle and fought for it just like we fought for freedom from the pandemic. Just thinking about this makes me value my life so much more today."
She further adds, "We often take our freedom for granted. We take little liberties in life; we ignore small things because we have gotten it very easy. But we really need to start valuing these little blessings we have. The pandemic was an eye opener for us, to witness a time when there was a possibility of not getting food after a certain period, and most importantly, our survival. Being through that, we need to make this freedom worthwhile. This Independence Day, I request everyone to be empathetic and responsible towards their lives and this country."
