Actress and former Bigg Boss 13 sensation Shehnaaz Gill recently experienced a terrifying ordeal mid-air when her flight encountered severe turbulence. Travelling alongside her brother, Shehbaz Badesha, the Punjabi star shared a video of the nerve-wracking moments from inside the aircraft, leaving her millions of fans deeply concerned.
Taking to her Instagram account on Tuesday, Shehnaaz posted a candid clip capturing the sheer panic and eventual relief of the turbulent journey. Here is a complete breakdown of the scary flight experience, her viral video, and how netizens reacted to the incident.
The Mid-Air Scare: “Waheguru, Waheguru”
In the video that is currently going massively viral across social media platforms, the aircraft can be seen jolting violently due to bad weather. While some passengers handle turbulence with ease, Shehnaaz made no attempt to hide her fear.
The actress was seen sitting with her eyes tightly shut, hands folded in prayer, and repeatedly chanting “Waheguru, Waheguru” in an effort to steady herself as the plane shook. Seated next to her, her brother Shehbaz Badesha handled the tense situation quite differently. While he looked visibly uneasy, he attempted to keep the mood light, recording his sister’s reaction and suppressing nervous, jocular giggles during the critical moments.
A Safe Landing and ‘Ganpati Bappa Morya’ Chants
The intense pressure finally broke as the aircraft began its descent and the tires safely touched down on the runway at the Mumbai airport. The sheer relief on Shehnaaz’s face was palpable.
As soon as the flight landed safely, a relieved Shehnaaz started clapping and enthusiastically chanted “Ganpati Bappa Morya,” a sentiment that was quickly echoed by other relieved passengers on board.
Sharing the scary experience with her Instagram followers, Shehnaaz penned a heartfelt caption expressing her gratitude to the Almighty. She wrote, “Bahut mushkil se bache aaj (We narrowly escaped today)… So grateful we landed safely. Thank you, Waheguru. #ganpatibappamorya.”

Relieved followers poured in their blessings, with one fan writing, “Thank god you both are safe, Shehnaaz and Shehbaz,” while another commented, “Please take care and stay safe. Bappa is always with you.”
