I would get hurt if that happens to me too, I thought we should be passionate about national anthem, but I guess some people just don't think of it as important as some other people do.

yes, its a wrong thing to do.,..those who had done that should be fined or questioned by authorities,...it is against law to use our national anthem as a means of publicity or for fun...it hurts any Indian who has witnessed or hears it...thanks for bringing this issue here, cause let us express our regret in this discussion being Indians...

Ofcoz it hurts, playing national anthem everywhere and anytime is a common thing these days, no one really care's about it respect. political parties have made it a biggest tools to show how patriotic they are. One more common thing you can remember is purchasing Indian flags on 26th Junaury and 15th August, that flag only has importance on that particular day (Not even a complete day, only till 2-3pm). After that you can see those flags spilled everywhere on the road and dustbins. It hurts too much. Government should should bring ban on producing and selling such things in public. Really something should be done
