Colors Kannada marked Independence Day uniquely, with artists participating in the celebrations across all 31 districts
Patriotic fervor was at its peak as India celebrated 78th Independence Day this Friday. Joining the spirit, Colors Kannada, known for its commitment to nonstop entertainment, hosted ‘Colorful Independence Day celebrations’ across the state as part of its Namma Desha, Namma Hemme (Our Country, Our Pride) campaign.
Television superstars like Rithvik Krupakar, Tanvi Rao, Spandana Somanna, Sushma Naanaiah, Mouna Guddemane, Chandraprabha and others participated in Independence Day celebrations at schools across 31 districts, adding a special touch to the initiative. This marked a historic milestone as it was the first time a television channel has taken such a huge step in celebrating Independence Day on such a grand scale.
Colors Kannada’s distinctive Independence Day celebrations not only captured the patriotic spirit but also deepened the channel’s bond with its audience. Covering 31 districts across Karnataka, Colors Kannada set a new benchmark as a homegrown brand by sending its artists—each hailing from their respective district to participate in the local flag-hoisting ceremonies.
These artists, deeply connected to their roots, embodied Colors Kannada’s dedication to connecting with the people and celebrating national identity. Following the flag hoisting, our artists visited renowned temples to promote the “Maharshi Darshana” program, savoured local cuisine at popular eateries to promote “SaviRuchi” program. Exclusive videos from these visits will be featured in our shows, offering our viewers an extra special experience.
Prashanth Nayak, Business Head of Colors Kannada, shared his excitement on the initiative: “As a brand, we launched the ‘Namma Desha, Namma Hemme’ campaign, first of its kind, to celebrate Independence Day. We believe not just in entertaining our audience but also in upholding the nation’s integrity.”
Sushma Rajesh, Cluster Head – Kannada, Viacom18 said “Colors Kannada has a reputation for launching unique campaigns that go beyond content, extending brand outreach as well. We are extremely proud of this unique initiative, a milestone for any GEC across the country. As a brand, we take pride not only in delivering fresh entertaining content but also in showing our commitment to the nation.”
Participating at the celebrations in Mysuru, Ramachaari famed Rithvik Krupakar expressed deep pride, saying “it was proudest moment of my life to celebrate Independence Day with all of you. This day serves as a powerful reminder of India’s rich heritage, the sacrifices of freedom fighters, and unites citizens in celebrating the spirit of Independence Day.
