Ahead of Independence Day, the Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Prakash Javdekar released a nearly five-minute-long patriotic music video. Titled "Watan", the video captures the beauty and might of India.
"The music video celebrates new India," tweeted Mr Javdekar.
Sung by Javed Ali and produced by Doordarshan, the music video shows landmark achievements of India in the recent past including the launch of Chandrayaan 2, National War Memorial and Statue of Unity among others. It also shows PM Modi flagging off India's fastest train - the Vande Bharat Express as well as Yoga Day celebrations.
