Satish Shah's Tweet:-
Satish Shah has shared his experience from the Heathrow airport in the UK, where he overheard the cabin crew commenting on his ethnicity. Then he immediately replied that he could afford such expensive tickets because he was an Indian.
His tweet read, "I replied with a proud smile 'because we are Indians' after I overheard the Heathrow staff wonderingly asking his mate 'how can they afford 1st class?'" As soon as he shared the tweet, many users reacted to his post while asserting their identity as proud Indians. One wrote, "I would've added one more line- 'Get used to it.'" Another person commented, "You could have also told them, come and see our Delhi and Hyderabad airports and decide where Heathrow stands. I recently transited via Heathrow. It is like our old Mumbai airport," even as another person mentioned, "Next time, please add one more line that whatever they are affording today is also because of Indian money, their ancestors looted."
