Every Indian parent dreams of seeing their children flourish and succeed in life. From the bustling streets of Mumbai to the serene villages of Kerala, parental aspirations resonate across the diverse landscape of India. These dedicated parents make countless sacrifices, often putting their own desires on hold, to provide their children with the best possible opportunities.
So when IndiGo pilot Pradeep Krishnan made a special announcement for his family who were onboard a flight he was flying, his mother was left with happy tears.
“The biggest flex of mine. Flying your family and friends is every pilot’s dream,” wrote Pradeep in the caption for a video capturing the touching moment when he makes the announcement.
His mother and grandparents were seen seated in the 29th row of the flight. His grandfather got up from his seat and greeted other passengers as they broke in applause for him.
“I’m very happy to announce that I have my family travelling with me today. My thatha, paati and amma are sitting in the 29th row. My grandfather is flying with me today for the first time,” the pilot said.

Our parents have worked tirelessly, sometimes taking on multiple jobs or enduring long commutes, to ensure we have access to quality education and resources. Wish all of us could make them proud in a similar way! 🙂
