National Anthem In Metro Viral Video: It’s not every day that you hear the national anthem playing inside a moving metro, but one influencer decided to make it happen, and the internet can’t stop talking about it. The stunt, which he called a 'social experiment,' has now gone viral and stirred up a heated debate online. The influencer, known as @06kancha_bhau on Instagram, uploaded the clip on August 12. In it, he can be seen standing inside a crowded metro with a portable speaker in his hand. Without warning, he plays India’s national anthem and stands silently in respect. Passengers look around, some confused, some unsure of what to do.

After a few moments, one passenger stands up. Slowly, more and more people follow, until almost the entire coach is on its feet. The anthem ends with loud cheers of 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai!', filling the compartment.

The video, which has already crossed nearly a million views, has drawn mixed reactions. While some saw it as a moment of unity, others felt it was done only for likes and views. In the caption, the influencer wrote, “Metro Mein National Anthem”, adding a disclaimer that it was just a social experiment to see “how people react to such a patriotic moment,” and that there was no intention to hurt anyone’s feelings. He signed off with “Jai Bharat Mata Ki.”

"Yefaltu ka kamkarraha bhai national anthem jaha man wahibjabo Chand views keye sale so call influencer ne maholkharabkarrahahai," a user wrote. "Not logical, ideally national anthem must be sung in open spaces. But if it is under a roof, then there must be a reason for it. It is our national anthem, not a song that you play anywhere without any reasoning. Ideally, it must be a punishable offence for such illogical acts," a second user added.

"There is a limit to the national anthem, not played everywhere, respect it too, you don't play everywhere in the case of videos, don't be illiterate even after being educated," added a third user. "You should know that the national anthem is not allowed to be played everywhere, and you can be punished for making this video and playing it everywhere," added another user.
