Merlin Group celebrates the 75th Independence Day with a digital contest on freedom of expression

News Correspondent, Takmaa, Kolkata, 15th Aug 2021 : As the nation marches towards its 75^th independence day  celebration,  that time of the year when freedom becomes the national anthem. With Independence Day coming up this weekend, can there be a better time to ask ourselves what’s their idea of the spirit of freedom? What does freedom imply to us.  This is the time to ask ourselves what is my contribution  to  the spirit of  freedom .

Taking cue  from this , Merlin Group , has announced a unique contest for the residents of Merlin Apartments across Kolkata celebrating the spirit of our Independence day. All the residents have to do  are to share their independence stories from their  lives and livelihood  in a capsule  of 2 to 3 minutes and share with Merlin Social Club . Merlin will select best clipping and provide the lucky  resident a rare opportunity  to be the brand ambassador of any  project . The winner will be featured in the visual  story telling communications of Merlin brands and projects.  All 100 residents can participate in the unique  spirit  of freedom contest. The participants need to post their video on Merlin social page –  https://www.facebook.com/groups/1019144665289070)

Speaking about the format and the essence of the  contest with the  theme on freedom of expression , Mr. Saket Mohta, MD of Merlin Group, said, “ Independence day is not just  another holiday. Freedom brings responsibilities. It is the time to remind  ourselves and resolve  to be responsible citizens  and to attain freedom of mind and speech and expression. Living by the ideals our freedom fighters sacrificed their lives for would be the true tribute to them. That would mean celebrating Independence Day in the true spirit of freedom. I truly believe  the freedom  of  expression contest among  our valued residents would give them an occasion to relive their old memories and become more creative. This initiative would strengthen the bond among the Merlin group and our  valued residents”.
