Indian batsman Gautam Gambhir expressed his strong views on the ongoing debate of standing for the national anthem in movie theatres. He took to Twitter to ask how tough it is to stand for the national anthem for less than a minute.

The southpaw tweeted, “Standin n waitin outsid a club:20 mins.Standin n waitin outsid favourite restaurant 30 mins.Standin for national anthem: 52 secs. Tough?”

Gambhir has been pretty vocal in expressing his views on patriotism and nationalism. In an interview earlier this month, the Delhi cricketer had said that one should be patriotic throughout the year and not on selected days like Republic Day, Independence Day and Gandhi Jayanti.

He has often expressed support for the defense forces. The Gautam Gambhir Foundation launched a free community kitchen in West Delhi last month.
