Karan Johar Alarmed After IndiGo Flight Fails To Land In Nagpur: ‘Na Le Koi Flight?'
Karan Johar reacts to an IndiGo flight's failed landing attempt in Nagpur, echoing growing public concern over recent flight scares in India.
As flight-related mishaps continue to rattle passengers across the country, filmmaker Karan Johar has joined the growing chorus of concern. The director-producer, known for his candid social media presence, recently reacted to yet another aviation scare involving an IndiGo flight that failed to land on its first attempt due to low visibility.
On Saturday morning, an IndiGo flight from Mumbai to Nagpur faced a tense moment as it was unable to touch down at the Nagpur airport during its initial landing approach. Fortunately, after a nerve-wracking 15-minute delay midair, the flight made a successful landing on its second attempt.
Lokmat Times Nagpur shared the news on Instagram, prompting Karan Johar to share the post on his Instagram Stories with an exasperated caption that read, 'He Bhagwan!!! Na le koi flight????" — a mix of frustration and anxiety that many flyers seem to be resonating with lately.
Karan's reaction comes at a time when Indian skies have been experiencing a spate of worrying aviation incidents. Just days earlier, an Air India Express flight enroute from Hyderabad to Phuket had to turn back due to technical issues shortly after takeoff. On Thursday, an IndiGo aircraft bound for Imphal returned to Delhi following a snag that surfaced after an hour in the air.
The week also saw an IndiGo flight from Delhi to Goa making an emergency landing in Mumbai due to a mid-air engine failure. Another IndiGo flight from Delhi to Patna took off again after landing because of an 'unstabilised approach" during touchdown, adding to the growing list of near-miss stories that are leaving passengers nervous and weary.
On the work front, Karan Johar is currently gearing up for Dhadak 2, which stars Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri in lead roles. The film is being produced by Dharma Productions in association with Zee Studios and Cloud 9 Pictures, and will be directed by Shazia Iqbal.
Karan is also lending his voice to the podcast world with Live Your Best Life with Karan Johar, a new Audible series featuring intimate conversations with guests like Konkona Sen Sharma, Richa Chadha, Ali Fazal, and Zakir Khan.

After Ahaan Panday and Vedang Raina, influencer Tanzeel Khan joins the doppelgänger multiverse as Saiyaara release breaks the internet
Just when fans were recovering from the visual déjà vu between Bollywood's new heartthrobs Ahaan Panday and Vedang Raina, social media dropped a wild twist, Tanzeel Khan, the OG internet creator, joined the mix. And no, this is not a joke. It is giving triplet energy in high definition. First Ahaan, then Vedang... now Tanzeel? Internet declares a doppelgänger trifecta The memes were already thriving when Ahaan's Saiyaara stills were placed next to Vedang's brooding poses. Wavy hair, sharp jawlines, intense gazes, the resemblance was unreal. But now, Instagram reels are showing Tanzeel's close-ups... and the internet is spiralling. Fans swear these three are the same man just rebranded in different aesthetics. Who is Tanzeel Khan & why is everyone suddenly talking about him? If you have been on the internet since the days, you already know Tanzeel Khan. He was that smooth-transition king, part of the iconic DAMNFAM clan with Mrunu Panchal, Anirudh Sharma, Manav, and Unnati. But he didn't stop there, Tanzeel also dipped into music, dropping soulful tracks and carving a solid space in the indie scene. Fast forward to now, and Tanzeel is going viral for something completely different: looking like Ahaan Panday's twin from another timeline. Reels with side-by-sides of Tanzeel and Ahaan have fans screaming in the comments, claiming the resemblance is 'too damn uncanny to be real.' Social media is in meltdown mode after Saiyaara's release It started with people casually pointing it out. Now it is a full-blown meme war. X (formerly Twitter) is flooded with 'Ahaan-Vedang-Tanzeel' edits, wild conspiracies, and even movie plot suggestions. One user joked, 'Can we get a Bollywood thriller with all three playing conmen brothers who do identity swaps?' Honestly, sign us up. Finally we got the male counterpart of Raveena Tandon-Twinkle Khanna The viral caption that really broke the internet? 'We got the male version of Raveena-Twinkle. But now there's a third one. Is this a glitch in the matrix or Bollywood's best prank yet?' Meanwhile, Saiyaara is slaying the box office In case you forgot how this madness started—Saiyaara, starring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, is now the highest-grossing Hindi debut film ever with Rs 83 crore in just three days. And all this without traditional pre-release promo. Director Mohit Suri clearly knew what he was doing, just like Aashiqui 2 days. And while Ahaan and Aneet take over cinemas, Tanzeel Khan is taking over timelines. Maybe it is time for Bollywood to cast all three and give the internet the chaotic cinematic crossover it deserves.
