Youth Socialgram Foundation, in association with CastingFly (A Premier Casting Agency), has announced open auditions for artists aspiring to participate in the 26 January Republic Day Parade 2026. Young performers from across India can apply and get a chance to showcase their talent on the national stage at Kartavya Path.

Every year, artists from various states take part in the National Rangshala Camp conducted by the Government of India after a multi-level selection process. For the last four years, Youth Socialgram Foundation has been enabling youth to directly enter this selection pipeline. Founder Yogesh Chaudhary—Rashtrapati Awardee—said the initiative offers young performers a rare opportunity for national-level representation.

The Foundation is conducting these auditions independently to provide a platform where associated youth receive guidance and training for further rounds. The process begins with online submissions of a performance video and personal details. Shortlisted candidates are invited for offline auditions, after which cultural experts select the best artists for the final stage. Selected participants will join the National Rangshala Camp and represent states and ministries in the Republic Day tableaux. They will also get an opportunity to meet the Hon’ble President and Prime Minister.

Co-founder & Director Amit Bhardwaj said the Foundation continues to empower talented youth nationwide. Co-Director Nahar Singh Chauhan added that the mission is to provide young artists a credible national platform.
