Murthy has done a mistake, His statement that the foreigners will be embarrassed shows the mentality of Indians who always try to please the foreigners at the cost of self respect and pride. The whole world is looking with respect towards india. we dont have to feel we are inferior and try pleasing others. This guy may be acting like a businessman trying to please his customers. He may be a phenomenon but there are lot of people who are following him. Tomorrow all the companies may ban singing national anthem or asking employees not to wear indian clothes, not to eat indian food and so on to please the foreigners saying they will be embarrassed. There are thousands of indians working in some foreign countries do they give any damn about our embarrassments..? we should be proud of our selfs and show respect to our national symbols. If we dont respect our selfs how come others respect us. I am sure the foreigners in infosys are laughing at our inferior and slave mentality.

Murthy is absolutely right. Even in Olympics, they play instrumental versions of hundreds of nations including the G-7 economic super-powers. The politicians are just trying to get some political mileage from this.
The Instumental National Anthem is just the same as the vocal one. Moreover, Murthy is a person who deserves a lot of respect for what he did for improving India's economy ! He is a real patriot, unlike other fools who sing the anthem and then do nothing for the country. Lets accept sagacious advice from Narayanmurthy.
