Mumbai, Aug 15 (IBNS): As India celebrated its 68th Independence Day on Friday, Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan said the nation is on the threshold of great success.
Expressing his thoughts, Bachchan posted in his blog:"We are on the threshold of great success and great forward movement, and we shall achieve this pinnacle of success .. a resilient nation, a humble nation, a nation that gave the most important weapon to mankind .. ahinsa !! We shall win !!"
 
He also remembered the sacrifices made by the freedom fighters.
 
"Hundreds and thousands fought for this Independence .. dying for the nation was a noble act .. sacrifices of immense proportions were the call of the hour … and the entire country followed what was prescribed and what not was not !!," wrote he.
 
Praising India's success story despite being a new country, the senior Bachchan posted: "Deprived of our independence for over a thousand years, including the Moghul and British periods, we are a new country … just 67 years old ! But our strengths and achievements have surprised all … and shall continue to do so .."
