India is celebrating its 78th year of independence today. Google marked the day with a special doodle illustrating architecture in India. The doodle, created by freelance art director, illustrator and animator Vrinda Zaveri, features six doors and windows that depict the country's rich architectural heritage. It represents traditional Indian designs with beautiful detailing in several colours including blue, yellow, green, saffron and brown. It also has a small design depicting India's national bird- the Indian Peacock.

"On Independence Day, many attend flag-raising ceremonies, parades, musical performances, community rallies, and more to celebrate. Homes, buildings, streets, and cars are decorated with the saffron, white, and green national flag - as seen in today's artwork," they added.
