Actress Sunny Leone who is currently busy with the promotions of her upcoming film 'Tera Intezaar' which also stars Arbaaz Khan in the lead, recently stated that one should stand up for the National Anthem, irrespective of the Supreme Court judgement. The apex court on Monday directed the Centre to take a call on the playing of the national anthem in public places, including cinema halls. Sunny said, “I think patriotism is one of those emotions that come from within, it comes from the heart. Whatever the judgment is, I think you should stand for your National Anthem, I do.”

Arbaaz Khan who was present at the trailer launch of the film along with Sunny Leone, stated, “Irrespective of Supreme Court’s decision that says that we do not need to stand up for National Anthem when played in theatre, I will always stand up for it. My mind is conditioned that way, it is a practice for me, so whenever I hear National Anthem, I will automatically stand up, no matter what, and it is in my headspace.”
