Amitabh Bachchan previously was slapped with a legal complaint when he sang the National Anthem at Eden Gardens in Kolkata before India and Pakistan’s cricket match in the T20 Cricket World Cup. The complaint that was filed stated that the actor took 1 min 22 seconds to sing the anthem against the 52 seconds prescribed by the Ministry of Home Affairs.
However, it seems that the matter is a non-issue and should not be given much fodder. The crux of the matter is that our National Anthem and Flag is respected and honoured.
