Children's Day, or Bal Diwas, is celebrated on November 14 every year in India. This year, the special occasion falls on Thursday, when we embrace our inner child. The day is marked to remember Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, India's first Prime Minister.

It is said that he was extremely fond of children and was fondly called Chacha Nehru. The politician and key figure in the national independence movement believed that children should be carefully nurtured, as they are the pillars of the nation and citizens of tomorrow. Hence, Children's Day is celebrated every year to honour our future nation-builders.

The day is celebrated with much joy and enthusiasm across the country, and special programs are conducted for school-going children. Bollywood songs have always added a special touch to every occasion, and Children's Day is no exception.

So, let your inner child shine as we explore some tracks that celebrate the innocence of childhood. This patriotic song from the 1962 film Son of India , directed by Mehboob Khan, tells the story of a young boy named Gopal (Sajid Khan) who explores the dangerous world of grown-ups. Sung by Shanti Mathur, the music for the "Nanha Munna Raahi Hoon Desh Ka Sipahi Hoon" is composed by Naushad Ali.

Gopal expresses his love for his nation in this song, which is considered iconic today. Anoth.
