"Happy Independence Day India! No way to change neighbours, let's work towards peace, tolerance and love. Let humanity prevail.# HopeNotOut," Afridi wrote on his twitter page.
India celebrated its 70th Independence day today, while Pakistan celebrate it a day before on August 14.
Virat Kohli had donated a cricket bat for Afridi's foundation and the former all-rounder recently thanked the India skipper.
The India team had also given Afridi a signed jersey on his retirement last April.
