More often than not, plane rides are monotonous affairs with nothing exceptional. However, once in a while, these rides turn out quite interesting for the flyers, especially when pilots and air hostesses spice up the journey with their interesting remarks. This Independence Day, a SpiceJet pilot who's previously gone viral for his unique announcements onboard, delighted fliers once again with his powerful poetry.
In a video going viral, Captain Mohit Teotia marked India's 77th Independence Day by saluting all those freedom fighters who sacrificed everything for this country. He also talked about how India has come a long way in these 76 years, making a reference to the recent Chandrayaan-3 mission. He ended his poetic announcement by urging all Indians to remain united and harbour love and peace among themselves.
''Happy Independence day! We still have a long way to go but let's celebrate what we have achieved. Vande Mataram,'' he captioned the video on his Instagram account.
