Manu Bhaker alongside PR Sreejesh, have been chosen as India’s flag bearer at the Paris 2024 Olympics Closing Ceremony, which will be held on August 12 (Monday). For the Opening Ceremony in Paris, PV Sindhu and Sharth Kamal carried India’s flag during the Parade of Nations, held on the Seine river.
Wrestler Bajrang Punia was India’s flag-bearer for the Closing Ceremony at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics three years ago.

The closing ceremony will be a much shorter affair and will take place — in a more traditional fashion — at France’s national stadium. Artistic director Thomas Jolly has revealed it will combine “wonder” with “dystopia”, suggesting some darker elements than the joyful and impertinent tone of the opening ceremony that drew a record audience of more than a billion worldwide.
Some reports have also suggested that renowned Hollywood actor Tom Cruise is also likely to engage in a death-defying stunt on the roof of the Stade de France.
