Actor Anupam Kher was honoured by the crew members of IndiGo airlines on a flight recently to Bengaluru. In a video posted on Instagram Monday, Kher was seen being introduced by the cabin crew and also being given a note.
In the clip, the air hostesses requested the passengers to stand at their own seats so they could click a group picture with Kher. Thanking the crew members, Kher addressed everyone onboard and said, “This is so amazing that this kind of a welcome is given to me. I thank the captain and crew and all of you for giving me this great honour and for introducing me to the flight to Bangalore.”
Kher also shared a photo of the note that he received from the cabin crew members. “Thank you for flying with us, wishing you luck and happiness in life. You’re too kind and generous. Loved having you onboard with us. Hope to see you again,” the note said along with the names of the air hostesses.
