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!

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 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.

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.

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".

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.

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.

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.

I would say that national anthem should be played in the halls, as very seldom we (people doing jobs) get a chance to sing the song in their daily life, the view with a flag in cinema hall increases our patriotism. Also gives us an opportunity to stand and sing, show our feelings. The soldiers die for us and can't we stand and salute this flag, for at least 52 seconds?

According to me, is our country in such a bad state that there is a need to make people remind about their patriotic feeling before a movie? If such is the condition of India, then I don't really think that this idea would be any helpful to make people be more respectful towards the country.

Making people stand forcefully for 52 seconds and then listening some gossips and some hatred words about the country is just a piece of disrespect for all those respectful people who lost everything to build our nation and nothing else.
