Lata, who was wearing a tricolour saree, laughs hearing it and responded, “Mujhe laga ki aaj ka din hamara Swatantrata ka din hai, toh kyu na mai khadi pehnoon. Yeh khadi ki saree hai. Aur ispe tiranga hai” (I wore a khadi tricolour saree today, in hounour of our Indepence Day, which is being celebrated today).
