The 40-year-old British-Indian, who was on Air India flight AI171 bound for London Gatwick from Ahmedabad, recounted his harrowing experience, stating, "Don't know how I got saved."


The Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, carrying 230 passengers and 12 crew members, crashed shortly after take-off from Ahmedabad airport. The incident has been described as one of India's worst aviation tragedies, with 241 confirmed fatalities.

Speaking to media outlets like DD News, he vividly described the terrifying 30 seconds that marked the final moments for the other 241 people on board. While the exact reasons for his survival are still being investigated, his presence of mind and the fortuitous seating in an emergency exit row are believed to have played a crucial role.

A strange togetherness: Couples like Sunny Deol-Dimple Kapadia and Nasir Husain-Asha Parekh didn’t need a wedding ring to promise togetherness forever. Unconventional relationships. YEH kaisa rishta hai? We often wonder as we see the 84-year-old music composer Bhupen Hazarika and the 55-year-old filmmaker Kalpana Lajmi walk in together at public functions. Artistes and other unorthodox souls do not allow rules of civil society to govern their hearts. Nor are they really bothered with what people would think about them. So what do we say about the rapport that gossip columnist Devyani Chaubal shared with superstar Rajesh Khanna? The two loved to hate one another. Eventually the dreaded Devyani (whose column Devi’s Frankly Speaking made Bollywood shudder in collective embarrassment) confessed to having slept with her star-friend, though the encounter, she said, was disastrous.
