If we execute a symbolic link python script, can we print the path of the real file?

If I execute a python script which is actually a symbolic link linked to the real script from somewhere else, is there anyway we can print the location of the real script?

Alternatively, if you don't want to use argv

#!/usr/bin/python
import os
print os.path.realpath(__file__)
