Should national anthem be played in cinema halls?

I think no because national anthem always sings in open area if we sing an under the roof so that we are insulting for national anthem it is wrong.

Hello everyone,

According to my point of view, National anthem should not play in hall, national anthem creates patriotism in our heart. But we go theatre for enjoyment. If we would play national anthem in the theatre then we are insulting the national anthem.

Hi, guys.

As we all know we go to cinema hall either with our friends or either with our family basically for refreshment or entertainment. But before start the movie if we stand with our family or friends for giving love, respect and feel pride. It's small duration appx 20 sec if we have to stand in cinema hall before our entertainment I appreciate the decision of govt and honourable supreme court.

The people who do not stand for 20 sec for their nation must be punished by making some rules or law over it.

It's a matter of our nation respect and it should be followed for every citizen of the country.

Country first rests later.

I think it should not be played in cinema hall because if it is being played so we should be optimistic towards because it's ours.

Nowadays, everyone is a patriot, everyone a nationalist, and they would thrash everyone who is not willing to be one. But what is the definition of patriotism, if a person is not willing to support national anthem in halls is a traitor, well those who are condemning him to be a traitor first look deep inside you what have you done in your life which makes you a patriot, it might happen that the so-called traitor has contributed more than you in the country's betterment. Get rid of this pseudo-patriotic feelings and stop inserting references of an army and national anthem in almost everything. You don't become a patriot by standing for your anthem or unfurling flags at Republic Day or other same occasions, it comes from your heart, irrespective of place time and most importantly the influence of the mass. So if you are a patriot you don't need national anthem in halls or flags on your vehicles, just peep in your mind and soul you will get it there.

I think national anthem should not be played in cinema halls for all the film's going on like adult film, corrupted politics.

It should be played only when film related to nation are displayed on the screen lie border which creates a kind of respect towards our country before watching the movies struggled by our soldiers or national heroes.

The Nation is always first for me. If we can spend 3 hrs to watch the movie then why not 50 seconds for the national anthem. To stand for 50 seconds and to respect the national anthem makes me proud.

Jai hind.

I think it should be played in cinema hall because that 52 seconds are not boring for any Indian and it shows that how people from different religion stand together to show respect towards our country and for that who think it is boring task then please don't stand to do your work in that 52 seconds because showing respect to our country is not our duty it is our feeling that comes from our heart which encourages us to show respect and love towards our country.

Yes, national anthem should be played in cinema halls and all public places like cricket stadium. Panchayat Bhawan, schools, college, govt office because it binds in the colour of patriot.

Think, why our great hero Bhagat Singh, Azad and their team sacrifice their life. Only for the freedom of nation not for their own benefits. National anthem makes us proud. We all should respect it. It is a lesson for our future generations. Think something for the unity of the nation. To stand for 52 seconds in cinema hall will not need to paid extra money or stamina. No one will lose their energy. National anthem gives us a sense of patriot, unity.

This topic has two sides. Actually, nothing wrong in playing national anthem in theatres but playing it before the start of some vulgar films is some what disrespecting our national anthem. And playing anthem before all good movies will be a great decision made by the govt. At least for that 1 min we can feel about our nation, our culture, our freedom fighters.

One more thing is that our Indian government is not showing interest to play national anthem in colleges. When it comes to the matter of colleges. Colleges are the appropriate places to play national anthem than cinema halls.
