Should national anthem be played in cinema halls?

If the national anthem is being played before a movie starts then why not a National anthem before:

A flight takes off
A train journey
At the workplace

A national anthem is a very patriotic feeling. There are places where it should be sung like parade grounds, Schools (where the national is taught), but not cinema houses.

When a national anthem is played then what we do should next have a national feeling like march past, a national game. Flag hoisting, An NGO which makes an effort for better India,

But in a movie house has nothing to do with a patriotic feel.

The national anthem should not be played in movie halls. There are certain appropriate occasions where patriotic encouragement is required. Every day before office starts, let us say at 1000 hrs the national anthem needs to be played so that every day starts with patriotic fervour. Eventually in the future, as the world gets globalized and even physical attributes to get mixed up and a Utopian equal opportunity and individual protection and security situation get better and we move towards a 'Vasudeva kutumbam' national anthems will lose its significance. Today we are struggling to hold various parts of a Nations together. You have seen EU and it's struggle.

In my opinion, the national anthem should not be played in the cinema hall because it is a place for entertainment, not the right place to show our patriotism to make people forcefully stand and let them sing it should be played in an open place not under the roof.

Hi guys.

In my opinion, the National Anthem should be played in cinema hall it's very important in our life because when we live our life at that time SOLDIERS play their duty and because of SOLDIERS we live tension free.

It's only 52 seconds standing so it did anyone.

After 52 seconds we did not stand we only sit in the cinema hall so it's useful to our health because first, we stand them we sit 3 hrs so it's ok.

"Instead of listening we sing a NATIONAL ANTHEM".

According to me it shouldn't be played into the cinema halls because everyone doesn't have patriotism and in the cinema halls there are people of several religion who don't want to listen or sing this national anthem it is just a wasting of time for them and it is also a disrespecting of our national anthem and another reason is that the national anthem should be played in an open area instead of into the four walls and the person who is into the cinema halls they don't focus into the national anthem they starts their gossips related to their movies and all.

In my opinion.

The national anthem should be played in the cinema hall. It's very important in our life because we are Indians and it's shows our nationaly. And in the cinema hall, every age is to be presented and it's a very good environment because no one knows to other all are known but Because of national, we are connected to each other and sing a song together. And also in these senior children only use Mobile and playing games but when they went to cinema hall and they learn and show love to our nationality.

And it just a 52 sec standing it's also good for health because after that you only sit on the year for 2 Hr.

Our soldiers play their duty and because of soliders we laugh easily, we live tension free so just only 52 sec. We shows love to our nation.

Before delving further into the topic its important for us to understand. Why is national anthem played?

I feel this gets us to an answer of paying respect to our country. But does playing national anthem in the movies really brings respect to it. The answer would be big no because not everybody there is as patriotic to stand and salute the feeling for which it is played.

Cinema halls contain public of some who may have patriotism and may stand up for the good cause but what about others who are more interested in the upcoming trailers or arranging their seats. It would be a disrespect to our nation's pride, nations anthem and even it wouldn't bother them as they are left unnoticed. If it should be played in cinemas then it should be played in parliaments, in workplaces & people not respecting it shouldn't be left unnoticed. That would be real respect to the motive with which it played.

In my opinion, the national anthem should be played in the cinema halls as no one attends the national anthem daily and also it reminds everyone about the unity of our country and polishes the patriotism in one's mind. Standing for 52 sec is not a difficult task while you can watch a movie for 2-3 hrs. Also showing respect to our national anthem is a sign of patriotism and to the soldiers who are securing our nation at the borders in even negative temperatures.

Can't we stand erect for even 52 sec?

According to me, the people who do not stand for even our national anthem have no right to claim themself as an INDIAN. Thank you!

Hello everyone, Good evening.

In my point of view, national anthem should not play in cinema hall because national anthem is national anthem. It's not a entertaining song, people come to cinema hall for enjoyment or entertainment. After the job or duty. If you should play. Then you can play in our work place or before starting the job. Thank you.

According to me,

The national anthem should be played in cinema halls because watching movies for 3hours and denying to stand even for less than a minute is quite unfair when you have already stood up for it for almost 12years in your school assembly. Moreover, the word national in itself contains a word Nation means we all as Indians are united and part of this nation. It also motivates and reminds our youth to stand and gives respect to our own country's anthem. Standing for less than a minute or for 52 seconds doesn't degrade our positions or time.
