Woman has experience of lifetime after meeting Anil Kapoor on flight!

Fans always dream about meeting their favourite celebrities. The experience can be one of a lifetime or it might not be something that you have ever imagined. However, one fan of Anil Kapoor had the time of her life when she ended up meeting the 'The Night Manager' star. The woman named Shikha Mittal shared on Instagram that she normally does not like to take pictures with celebrities, but she was compelled to take one with Anil Kapoor. The woman also talked about how Anil Kapoor comforted her on the flight when they hit turbulence. 

Sharing the photo with Anil Kapoor on Instagram, the woman wrote: "I would never take a picture with any celebrity. Even this picture is NOT with Anil Kapoor. It’s with a co-passenger. 2+ hours of uninterrupted conversation. Highlights below. Part 1 (today) will share the topics we spoke about and how we got talking."

"How did we start talking? The moment flight took off, the luggage box above me opened and started flapping. The flight got turbulent right at the take-off. I have always been bad on flights. In 2022 I developed added fears due to a health condition. The moment I kept my hand on the divider in the middle of the two seats, my co-passenger held my hand and said Hey it’s ok. Tell me your name. Let’s talk," she added.

Further talking about the interaction, she wrote: "If that moment he didn’t speak, I would have never spoken in the interest of keeping his privacy. But those 2 hours I laughed endlessly and it felt like the flight landed a few seconds post taking off. (Pata bhi nahi chala.) When it landed, Anil Ji said: a lot of people will tell you anxiety is bad, but today due to your anxiety we both got a chance to talk, and laugh and now maybe you also treat me to a coffee in Delhi. I smiled, and he hugged me on our way out and said Shikha The Mittal BYE!. He was such a genuine co-passenger."

Anil Kapoor's show 'The Night Manager' will premiere on Disney+ Hotstar on February 17.

'The Night Manager' stars Anil Kapoor, Aditya Roy Kapur, Sobhita Dhulipala and Tillotama Shome in lead roles and it is based on the British spy series of the same name, which starred Tom Hiddleston, Hugh Laurie, Olivia Colman and Elizabeth Debicki.
