Independence Day 2021: Nine Vande Mataram Tracks That Fill Us With Pride And Gratitude For Our Nation (Watch Videos)

Vande Mataram or Mother, I bow to thee, fill us with great pride for our nation. It also gives a sense of immense gratitude towards our ancestors who sacrificed their lives to give us a free India. Today, we are enjoying the fruits of their martyrdom. “Vande Mataram” was written by Bankim Chandra Chatterjee and was later included in his Bengali novel Anandamath. It rose to national prominence when Rabindranath Tagore sang it at the Indian National Congress’ 1896 session. It soon became the war cry of freedom fighters trying to free India from British rule. Tiger Shroff’s Song Vande Mataram Is Oozing With Patriotism and Sheer Sense of Belongingness For the Nation (Watch Video)
