Rakhi Sawant shared a video from within her aircraft, showing that her flight was delayed due to the crash earlier in the day.
Rakhi Sawant faced the aftermath of the private jet that skid off the airport runway in Mumbai. For the unversed, on Thursday evening, a charter aircraft with eight people on board suffered a runway excursion. All the eight people, including the pilot and co-pilot, 1 crew member and 5 passengers, have been hospitalised. The aircraft, operating flight from Vishakhapatnam to Mumbai, skidded off the runway and crashed at the domestic airport during landing.
Following the incident, runway operations at the airport were put on hold for some time. It seems like many flights were also delayed, including the one in which Rakhi was on board. The Bigg Boss alum took to Instagram and shared a video from within the aircraft. In the video, the airhostess was heard explaining the reason for the delay. Watch the video below:
A Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) spokesperson said, “On 14.09.2023, M/s VSR Ventures Learjet 45 aircraft VT-DBL operating flight from Vizag to Mumbai with 06 passengers and 02 crew members on board, veered off the runway at Mumbai International Airport. The incident occurred at approximately 17:08 PM today. There are no casualties. CSMIA’s airside team is on-ground to assist with the clearance on-site.”
Meanwhile, Rakhi has been in the news for her tiff with Sherlyn Chopra and her divorce from Adil Khan Durrani. Rakhi made several allegations against Adil. One of which was that he sold her naked photos. Adil responded to the claims, “I am not that person to capture any videos and share in public. Rakhi has made my videos and shared them on social media. They were my personal videos, which she shot and made public. She made fake accounts and published my videos. This is her old habit. Investigation is on for this as well.”
