A shocking video has emerged that reportedly shows power failures inside the doomed Air India plane just hours before it crashed, killing over 200 people.
Catastrophic crash profiled.
Hours after Vatsa’s flight, the same aircraft departed from Ahmedabad to London’s Gatwick Airport, only to crash shortly after takeoff.
The cause of the crash remains unconfirmed, but early reports suggest a technical fault occurred moments after takeoff.
Surveillance footage from the airport shows a cloud of dust or smoke trailing the aircraft as it took off, disappearing behind buildings seconds later.
Moments later, an enormous fireball erupted where the plane went down, engulfing the wreckage in flames.
Survivor’s story highlighted.
Amid the chaos and wreckage, Ramesh was found limping but alive, a rare miracle in a disaster that claimed over 200 lives.

Despite injuries, Ramesh was able to walk away without any life-threatening wounds, raising hopes for others trapped inside.
His quick thinking and proximity to the emergency exit likely saved his life.

Survivor Vishwash Kumar Ramesh was seated in 11A, right beside the emergency exit.
Meanwhile, passenger Akash Vatsa, who flew the same plane 14 rows behind on an earlier flight, has come forward with shocking video footage exposing serious cabin malfunctions.
Pre-crash footage released.
The footage, taken by a passenger who flew the same plane two hours earlier, captures a cabin where “nothing” was working—no lights, no air conditioning, and no seatback screens.
Social media user Akash Vatsa shared the eerie clip on X, stating, “I was in the same damn flight two hours before it took off from Ahmedabad.”
Vatsa flew from Delhi to Ahmedabad on the Boeing 787 Dreamliner during what was the plane’s second-to-last flight before the fatal crash.
“I noticed unusual things in the place,” Vatsa added, clearly unsettled by the multiple malfunctions he encountered during his flight.
The video shows a darkened cabin, with Vatsa narrating, “The AC is not working at all. And, as usual, your TV screens are also not working.”
He also pointed out, “Neither is this button for calling the cabin crew,” highlighting the broader failure of the plane’s systems.
Vatsa complained of “sweating like hell” due to the lack of air conditioning, blaming poor maintenance for Air India’s bad reputation.
The video also reveals loose parts under seats and broken fittings—signs of neglect that add to the grim picture of the aircraft’s condition.
Air India has yet to respond to requests for comment regarding the video or the condition of the aircraft before the crash.
Reactions to shocking footage unveiled.
The video posted by Akash Vatsa showing multiple malfunctions inside the Air India plane sparked immediate outrage on social media.
Many users expressed anger over the airline’s reported poor maintenance, calling the footage “a glaring safety warning.”
Aviation experts weighed in, saying the video could indicate systemic issues within Air India’s fleet management.
Some passengers shared similar experiences, describing uncomfortable flights plagued by broken equipment and sweltering cabins.
Air India has remained largely silent, fueling speculation and frustration among the public and industry observers.
Regulators have announced plans to investigate the airline’s maintenance protocols following the video’s viral spread.
The footage has intensified pressure on Air India to be transparent and overhaul its safety measures to restore trust.
Global eyes on Air India’s next steps.
Air India’s response and forthcoming investigation findings will be closely watched by passengers and regulators worldwide.
For now, the disturbing video serves as a grim reminder of the potential warning signs before disaster struck.
The aviation community and the public await clarity, hoping this tragedy leads to concrete safety reforms.
