New Delhi: Amidst the celebrations of Independence Day (Yaum-e-Azadi) celebrated on 14th August in Pakistan, an incident has come to light which has created a stir on social media. Due to a huge mistake by some well-known Pakistani actresses who had come out to express the joy of their country's independence, they are now being ridiculed at the international level. In fact, in a video that is going viral on the internet, these beauties are seen dancing happily while holding the national flag of Pakistan in their hands, but an Indian patriotic song is playing in the background of this entire celebration.
Uproar over celebration of patriotic song from 'Raazi' movie
In this video shared on the internet, five actresses are seen celebrating with their national flag in their hands. The surprising thing is that behind this video, the famous patriotic song 'Ae Watan, Watan Mere, Aabad Rahe Tu…' from Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt's famous film 'Raazi' is playing. This is a very proud song for Indian cinema and music lovers, but at a time when Pakistan is celebrating its independence, people did not like the playing of an Indian patriotic song. The controversy deepened especially because the background of the film 'Raazi' is considered anti-Pakistan, and the actresses are facing sharp criticism for waving the Pakistani flag on the music of the same film.

Currently, this video is viral on every social media platform and people are giving different types of reactions on it.
