She shared the distressing incident that occurred on her flight AI 681 from Mumbai to Kochi on October 9. She took to her Instagram account to reveal her harrowing experience, detailing that her fellow passenger appeared to be intoxicated and disruptive. She also accused him of 'misbehaving, including inappropriate physical contact'.
