Independence
Day
Memories
When
asked
about
the
memories
of
the
Independence
Day
celebration,
Shagun
Panday
said,
"I
remember
that
Independence
Day
used
to
be
celebrated
in
a
very
traditional
way
when
I
was
in
school.
It
used
celebrated
in
our
area
in
Chandigarh
as
well.
We
used
to
sing
the
national
anthem
at
the
top
of
our
voice,
and
the
energy
was
like
‘aaj
toh
main
bhi
border
pe
chale
jau'.
I
was
a
kid
then,
so
I
was
not
fully
aware
of
how
sensitive
it
was
and
what
it
takes
to
be
on
the
border."
‘Sonu
Sood
Sir
Is
Someone
Who
Has
Woken
Up
Us
All’
Shagun
Pandey
is
very
impressed
with
Bollywood
actor
Sonu
Sood's
philanthropic
work
during
the
COVID-19
pandemic.
While
sharing
his
thoughts
about
patriotism,
the
Splitsvilla
11
finalist
said,
"Patriotism
for
me,
especially
in
today's
time,
is
waking
your
inner
soul
and
get
on
the
floors
to
extend
a
helping
hand,
which
I
have
always
been
doing.
Taking
inspiration
from
Sonu
Sood
sir,
I
feel
he
is
someone
who
has
woken
up
us
all."
Shagun
Pandey’s
Favourite
Freedom
Fighter
Shagun
Pandey
said
that
Netaji
Subhash
Chandra
Bose
inspired
him
a
lot.
The
actor
said,
"I
have
always
followed
Alpha
Male
code.
Even
today,
when
we
hear
about
Netaji's
presence
of
mind,
intelligence
and
courage,
it
makes
us
realise
that
either
you
do
it
or
you
only
do
it.
Sometimes
actions
are
equally
required
at
the
times
of
alternatives
for
talks."
‘Think
For
India
First
And
Then
Criticise’
When
asked
about
the
changes
he
would
like
to
see
in
Indian
in
the
next
five
years,
Shagun
said,
"Firstly,
I
think
India
will
change
if
you
change
your
thought
process
towards
life
as
citizens,
you
and
I
will
change.
So,
starting
today,
if
I
change,
I
am
sure
I
will
contribute
to
some
changes.
5
years
down
the
line,
I
will
inspire
my
brothers
and
sisters
to
think
for
India
first
and
then
criticise."
