Stand up, why not?

Kangana Ranaut



There has been a debate on the topic of mandatory standing for National Anthem at movie theatres. Actress Kangana Ranaut also shared her view on it and questioned why do people feel ashamed to stand up for the National Anthem. The actor recently attended a summit where she spoke about this topic.

Kangana Ranaut said, “The Americans stand for their national anthem. Why do we feel ashamed of standing? If you want to learn something from Americans then learn good things from them. I don’t mind. But I am going to stand for my national anthem. Whenever there is something for my country, then I am going to side with my country, my soldiers, my Army and I am a cool youngster of 21st century.”

She also said how she hears the youth in India complaining about the country. Kangana said, “I meet people and it has become a cool thing to say bad things about your country...I hear the youths always complaining and whining that ‘the country does not have the infrastructure and it is so dirty’... This attitude is not okay. If the country is dirty, then are you the guests? Why don’t you clean it?”
