Mumbai: The Indian tricolour flag will be hoisted by actor Abhishek Bachchan and former Indian captain Kapil Dev at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM) on the occasion of the 75th Independence Day.


Abhishek, who will be one of the key guests at IFFM, says that being invited to participate in the celebration of cinema is a great honour.


"It gives me great honour to be a part of the 75th year celebrations of Indian Independence in Melbourne. It's a matter of pride for me to hoist the Indian National Flag in the iconic Federation Square. It's an event where Indians from all across Australia, from all different backgrounds, will come together to celebrate India at 75."


He adds, "This is a mark of the friendship between Australia and India. To share this platform with Kapil Sir is momentous for me and the event is also a mark of the coming together of cinema and cricket, two things that have often united us Indians together."


Abhishek is looking forward to celebrating India, Indians and the spirit of our country among the hundreds of people who will attend to celebrate this moment and event.


IFFM festival director, Mitu Bhowmin Lange added: "India is completing 75 years of Independence and this event is a mark to celebrate this landmark moment. We are ecstatic to have Kapil Dev and Abhishek Bachchan jointly come together this year to do the honours of hoisting the Indian tricolour."


"It's a mark of the friendship that our country celebrates with Australia and with these two icons coming together is the perfect amalgamation of cinema and cricket."
