Airline staff praises Arjun Kapoor for the old 'AIB Roast' with a handwritten note, actor reacts

Arjun Kapoor has been in Bollywood for over 13 years now, carving his own space in the industry since his debut in Ishaqzaade. Over the years, he has seen both success and criticism, often finding himself the target of trolls who dismiss his journey because of his film family background.

One of the most controversial moments in his career was his appearance in the AIB Roast with Ranveer Singh and Karan Johar, a show that received massive backlash for its explicit jokes and language.

But despite the noise, there are fans who remember that moment fondly. Recently, an IndiGo airline staff member penned a heartfelt note for the actor, and it has been winning hearts.

During a flight, an IndiGo crew member spotted Arjun Kapoor and decided to share her admiration in a handwritten letter. The note read:

“Dear Arjun, It was a pleasure having you on board today! We love watching you on the screen. You have been amazing so far, and we wish you all the very best for your future projects as well. PS. I loved AIB Roast! Warm Regards, 6E 2775.”

It wasn’t just a routine appreciation note but one that highlighted how even a show as divisive as the AIB Roast found loyal fans who cherished it.

Arjun Kapoor took to Instagram Stories to share a picture of the letter. He captioned it: “IndiGo your crew as always is very kind.” The gesture clearly touched him, reminding both fans and critics that behind all the trolling, there’s also genuine admiration for his work and personality.

For those who may not recall, the AIB Roast in 2015 created a storm, drawing complaints and criticism for its bold content. While many slammed it, a section of the audience praised its irreverence, and Arjun’s participation became a talking point for years.

On the work front, Arjun Kapoor was last seen in Mere Husband Ki Biwi alongside Rakul Preet Singh and Bhumi Pednekar. His role in Singham Again also earned positive feedback, even though the film managed only a moderate run at the box office.
