#SaluteSelfie: This Independence Day, Pay Tribute The Celeb Way!

Independence Day is here, and our fav celebs are all over social media with an awesome new trend! The #SaluteSelfie movement started in honour of India’s 69th Independence Day, and as a way to pay tribute to the selfless and brave Jawans of our country. And we have to admit that we love this! It’s a sweet gesture, yet filled with so much respect. Let’s join in and offer our own salute too!

1. Amitabh Bachchan

Senior Bachchan, after inspiring actors for many years, kickstarted yet another trend, and we totally love him for this!
