Very strange video from PVR Cinemas Bangalore has been uploaded by TV2 channel on Youtube.
Theaters in few Indian cities have practice of playing National Anthem before the start of Movie. This practice may sound weird to some of you who have not seen in their cities but this is very common practice in metropolitan cities such as Pune, Mumbai & Bangalore. During one such national anthem, a family didn’t stand during National Anthem. This could be because of their health emergency or whatever reason may be which we are not aware of currently. But crowd didn’t like this gesture of the family during National Anthem and they started shouting on that family. You can see one bald man along with others made sure that movie doesn’t start until this family leaves the PVR theater. With pressure from the crowd, family was helpless and they had to leave theater in the end.

One user commented on the video:-
This is all going wrong in the name of hollow patriotism!
Standing up may be a respectful, same way “Not Standing Up” may not be disrespectful. You can not just bound any one to stand up by playing anthem at any time, before anything. You can request but not force. Education without concepts and moral values is ruining the soul. How can we expect moral values from the schools who are participating in corrupt practices, teachers selected in corrupt way.
