On the 66th Republic day of India, Bollywood took to Twitter to show respect and pride for our country. Here is what some of them posted:

Shahrukh Khan: Memories and Pride watching the Parade on TV. Missing my family and how we went to watch the parade from the Freedom Fighters section. Jai Hind!

Madhur Bhandarkar: Happy republic day. Gantantra diwas kee shubhkamnayen. Proud to be an Indian - Jai Hind. Vande Mataram.

Farhan Akhtar: Justice, Liberty, Equality, Fraternity. The 4 tenets our nation was founded on. Let's promise to preserve them. Happy Republic Day.

Sridevi: Wishing all a very Happy Republic Day. A day of pride and honor for all Indians. #JaiHind #ObamaInIndia #ProudIndian

Nargis: Totally enjoying watching the Republic Day Parade! It's so beautiful.

Kunal Kohli: Even jub main chota bucha tha whenever I saw the #RepublicDay parade I felt proud n emotional.

Clearly an emotional moment for the country. The day couldn’t have gotten more bigger and better as the US President Barrack Obama and his wife Michelle shared the podium with our Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other senior dignitaries at the Parade held in New Delhi.
