Each year the iconic landmark of Melbourne, the
Federation Square is populated on one of the most important days for the Indian
community living in the cultural hotspot. As part of the annual Indian Film
Festival of Melbourne (IFFM) which is multi award winning and the largest film
festival in the Southern Hemisphere, the tent pole event is that of the
hoisting of the Indian National Flag ahead of the Independence Day
celebrations. This year as the festival will be celebrating its 10th
year amongst much fervour, it will be Indian cinema’s most loved director,
Karan Johar who will be doing the honours of hoisting the flag.
During the 10 days of celebration
of Indian cinema this year with courage as its central theme, the key highlight
of the festival is the annual flag hoisting. Karan will hoist flags in presence
in a large public gathering who come to witness the patriotic spectacle each
year.
The hoisting of the flag will take place in the
presence of thousands of Indian-Australians and people from the Subcontinent
Diaspora on 11th August 2019. Also present in the
company will the High Commissioner of
India in Australia and The Mayor of Melbourne.
