On the occasion of 67th Republic Day we all feel proud to be Indians. The national anthem makes our chest swell with pride every time we hear it, be it those school assemblies or some movie.
At the unveiling of an album ‘The Sport Heroes’, an initiative by International Institute of Sports Management (IISM) to encourage the younger generations to be part of sports. The video features eight prominent sports figures, including Sachin Tendulkar, Sania Mirza and Gagan Narang.
At the launch event Sachin said that singing the national anthem at the Wankhede Stadium before the 2011 World Cup final was the “proudest feeling” ever. “When you sing the ‘Jana Gana Mana’, your head is always held high, but when you sing it (standing) in the centre of the ground, then…seena chauda ho jata hai (chest swells with pride),” Tendulkar said.
