The Dabangg actress later deleted the post or it may have expired in Stories. By then, screenshots of her post had already circulated across social media platforms.

Indigo Crisis
Sonakshi's post drew attention to the challenges faced by passengers due to airline operational issues. Travellers are especially wary in the wake of the Indigo flight crisis that led to cancellations of a thousand flights in India in December 2025. Sonakshi, too, vented out, fearing Air India may also go that route. IndiGo Flight Cancellations: 104 IndiGo Flights Cancelled in Mumbai, 225 in Delhi As Airline Seeks FDTL Exemption From DGCA.
The Indigo flights were cancelled in the period around December 5, 2025, due to non-compliance with the DGCA (Directorate General of Civil Aviation) rules for duty hours of the crew. However, flights of Indigo and other airlines on the north India route are still being cancelled as of December 16 due to the winter fog in Delhi NCR.
Sonakshi Sinha was recently seen in the Telugu movie Jatadhara - released theatrically on November 7, 2025 - with Sudheer Babu and Shilpa Shirodkar.
