The video was from an interview with Siddharth Aalambayan, where he asked Rahul about being a pilot. Siddharth confessed that he wanted to be a pilot, and then Rahul explained that he learnt flying from his father, late Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi. He shared, “Flying is partially about flying an aeroplane. But it’s much more about an approach and an attitude.”Rahul also added, “My father told me one line. He said, ‘Always fly the plane, never let the plane fly you.'” He spoke seeing things with a larger perspective as a result of his training as a pilot.
Some of the comments on Vivek’s tweet shared the filmmaker’s views. One Twitter user responded to Rahul’s statement that the pilot had to be ahead of the plane, writing, “If this is what pilots do I am scared! Next time I take a flight I would like to first ensure that the Pilot is firmly seated in the cockpit and is not ahead of the plane.”
Another user shared, “Are you flying the plane or is the plane flying you….make sure please (laughing face with tears emojis).” Yet another joked, “I am flying on Cloud 9 (wink face emoji).” There were also a few Rahul defenders. One user stated, “I can understand that it is difficult to understand simple English and logic when u have a mindset of hating someone.”
On his Bharat Jodo Yatra, which started on September 7, 2022, Rahul is now through Jammu and Kashmir. Several Indian celebrities, including Kamal Haasan, Amol Palekar, Pooja Bhatt, and Swara Bhasker, marched alongside the Congress leader in an effort to draw attention to the major political challenges facing the nation.
The Vaccine War, in which Anupam Kher, Nana Patekar, Pallavi Joshi, and Sapthami Gowda star, is Vivek’s upcoming motion picture. Pallavi, the wife of the filmmaker, was recently injured on the job when a car drove over her foot.
