Jatinder Shah is one of the most recognized music director of Bollywood and Pollywood and it is very disheartening to hear that he has been racially abused and mocked by a prominent airlines. It all happened on a flight on April 3 when Jatinder Shah along with Pooja Singh Gujral a well known Bollywood marketer were travelling back to Mumbai from Chandigarh. Shah uses a customized battery operated wheelchair which was checked in as per the Jet Airways regulations, but unfortunately the chair never reached him. The flight then was also delayed due to some internal issues of the airlines. As Jatinder Shah was made to wait, alongside, Pooja also decided to accompany him. And what happened next shocked almost everyone present on the scene when, the pilot of the flight namely, Bernd Hoesslin stormed out of the cockpit and started hurling abuses against Shah and Pooja. The pilot started shouting “You Bloody Indian” and mocked Shah for his disability Meanwhile Pooja tried to explained the situation to the pilot, whilst the pilot also started misbehaving with her. As per media reports Pooja Gujral stated, “As an avid traveller, I am shocked at the behavior of this pilot, the pilot assaulted me even after I protested against his abuse and even after complaining on phone, hand written complain plus mail there has been no response from Jet airways so far.” After a Police complaint was lodged on April 4 at the Sahar International Airport police station, Jet Airways came into action and agreed to give a written apology to the music director and his friend. Though Pooja has just confirmed Gabruu.com that Jet Airways as of now has not given any official apology but the airlines have informed her to send it by Monday.
