Satish Shah Response To “How Can They Afford 1st Class?” At London Airport Will Make Every Indian Proud
Satish Shah is an absolute comedy talent. His name alone is enough to make you chuckle. With his dry humor, intelligence, and friendliness, Satish Shah has amused TV and film audiences for three decades.
Every program in which he appeared, including Yeh Jo Hai Zindagi, Filmi Chakkar, and Sarabhai Vs. Sarabhai is legendary. Additionally, he is also well-known for his roles in renowned films such as Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro, Saathiya, Hum Aapke Hain Koun, Main Hoon Na, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Hum Saath Saath Hain, and others.
However, the popular Hindi film actor, who has made us laugh with his hilarious appearances, recently revealed that he was subjected to racism in London. Satish Shah said that when he was at Heathrow Airport in London, he overheard an airport employee making racial statements about him to someone else. It all happened just because Satish Shah, an Indian, chose to fly first class, and the staff was unable to believe this fact.
Really? What’s so weird about that?
There are many Indians who can afford first-class flights, and there are many who can’t. But what is so strange about it?
Satish Shah handled the awkward circumstance in classic Sarabhai fashion
Satish responded to the authorities who had made racist remarks in his own unique style and later tweeted to his followers.
In a tweet, Shah gave a brief description of the incident, saying,
“I replied with a proud smile “because we are Indians” after I overheard the Heathrow staff wonderingly asking his mate”how can they afford 1st class?”

People on the internet were amazed by Satish’s answer as soon as they saw it on the site and expressed their opinions in the actor’s post’s comment area.
As one user commented and requested an inquiry after tagging Rishi Sunak
@RishiSunak this needs investigation. This is just racism. @JamesCleverly @sats45 Please report this incident and I am 100% sure that guilty will be punished. British people are not like that I live here and they all are lovely. Exceptions are everywhere. https://t.co/FPN4kpAuU8

Indians facing racism is not a new phenomenon. But the more often something like this happens, the more disgusting it seems, because we don’t deserve that. What happened to Satish Shah, even after he was a well-known celebrity, might happen to us also.
While Heathrow airport took congnizance of the whole matter, it raises questions on the moral stature of the country that has an Indian-origin prime minister.

Rohit Sharma And Rahul Dravid Accused Of Manipulating ODI World Cup 2023 Final Pitch
As the Rohit Sharma-led Indian team faced a heartbreaking defeat in the ODI World Cup 2023 final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, billions of dreams were crushed. For many Indian fans, even after months, India’s loss at the hands of Australia in the ODI World Cup Final remains fresh.
To reach the final the Indian team had to go through a ten-match winning streak which kept the hopes high up that the team would be able to break the ICC title drought since 2013. India hosted the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 and throughout the tournament their performance was praiseworthy.
An important factor that was a topic of discussion surrounding the Indian team’s defeat was the condition of the pitch
A few factors suggested that the pitch was rigged for the game to be in India’s favor. In the following days, the nature of the pitch in the World Cup final was heavily discussed. Many believed that one of the major reasons behind India’s loss in the final was the slowness of the pitch. Former India batter Mohammed Kaif was a part of the broadcasting team in the tournament.
Mohammed Kaif made a shocking revelation that Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid were involved in the pitch’s preparation
Kaif claimed that the captain Rohit and head coach Rahul Dravid Kaif claimed would visit the pitch on all three days leading up to the World Cup final. He also mentioned that he saw the “colour” of the pitch continuing to change.
Kaif disclosed on Guest in the Newsroom on TheLallanTop,
I was there for three days, did a lot of shows. Rohit Sharma came in the evening with Dravid, went to the pitch, stood there for an hour and went back. They came again on the second day, and did the same thing. This went on for three days, and I saw the colour of that pitch change. I wore a blue shirt today, it would look yellow three days later… that was the extent of that change
The former India batter also revealed,
“No watering, no grass. It became a very slow pitch. This is the truth. There were Cummins and Starc, they bowled quick, and the thought was to give them a slow pitch, and they did make a mistake there. People say ‘curator did his job, we didn’t say anything’. Sab bakvaas hai (It’s all rubbish). You were roaming there, you are talking to him 100. ‘Ghaas kam karo, paani kam daalna,” do line hi toh bolni hain (Don’t use too much grass, don’t water it. You just have to say two lines). And there’s nothing wrong in that, you are the home team, take advantage. But we didn’t use it properly”
Many were surprised by India’s decision to bat first after Australia’s captain Pat Cummins won the toss
Cummins’ sharp reading of the pitch, played a key role in Australia executing their plans flawlessly and restricting India to 240.
Kaif continued,
“Cummins had the learning from the first match against India in Chennai. He had won the toss and batted first, and India won the game easily in the run-chase. In the final, teams usually don’t opt for fielding. We did that in 2003 and we lost. But Cummins learned from that and chased, irrespective of the occasion”
He also added,
“If it was a normal pitch… the form that Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah, Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav were in.. they were in great touch! If we had a flat pitch, 100% we would have won. Ham wicket me doctoring karne ke chakkar me phas gaye (We doctored the wicket, and that led to our loss)”
It really seems that the Indian team messed up while doctoring the pitch.

Here’s Why Ashish Nehra Didn’t Stop Hardik Pandya From Leaving Gujarat Titans To Join Mumbai Indians
Hardik Pandya’s switch from Gujarat Titans to Mumbai Indians has shocked everyone. Especially when he is joining the team as a captain replacing Rohit Sharma. To say that it remains a topic of hot discussion would not be so wrong. Now, Ashish Nehra, the head coach of Gujarat Titans opened up and shared why he did not stop Hardik Pandya from joining MI and leaving Gujarat Titans.
Hardik Pandya was an instant hit when he led Gujarat Titans to their maiden victory in IPL 2022
Hardik Pandya quickly became a star after leading Gujarat Titans to their first-ever IPL victory in 2022, capturing attention with his exceptional leadership skills. Despite this success, he surprised many by announcing his move to Mumbai Indians ahead of the 2024 season, where he was appointed captain. This decision sparked discussions, especially regarding Mumbai’s choice to replace Rohit Sharma. Reactions from Rohit Sharma’s wife Ritika are also to be not forgotten. Nonetheless, it is what it is.
Gujarat Titans head coach Ashish Nehra opened up about Hardik Pandya’s switch from GT to MI
GT head coach Ashish Nehra recently addressed Hardik Pandya’s decision to switch from GT to MI just a week before the start of the IPL season. Nehra candidly admitted that while he didn’t try to stop Pandya from leaving, he would have persuaded him to stay if it were any other franchise. Despite Pandya’s departure, Nehra expressed understanding, noting Pandya’s history with MI.
He said as we quote,
“I never tried to convince Pandya to stay back. As you play more, you gain experience. I could have stopped him had he gone to any other franchise. He (Pandya) played here for two years but he has gone to a team (MI), where he has played previously for 5-6 years.”
Reflecting on the trend, Nehra cautioned IPL franchises about the increasing likelihood of player transfers, similar to those seen in European football leagues. He emphasized the evolving nature of cricket and the emergence of trades and transfers as a norm. Nehra acknowledged the shift as a new challenge, suggesting that Pandya’s move could offer valuable learning experiences and wishing him the best in his future endeavors with MI.
“The manner in which the sport (cricket) is moving, we will have trades and transfers like we see in international soccer. It’s a new challenge for him and may be he will learn something new and we wish him the best.”
Now, the anticipation builds as Mumbai Indians prepare to face Gujarat Titans in their IPL 2024 opener on March 24, stirring up excitement among fans eager to see how Pandya’s leadership will fare against his former team.
The TATA IPL 2024 season is scheduled to commence on March 22, 2024, and will conclude on May 29, 2024. This season stands out with a total of 74 matches scheduled to take place, promising an action-packed tournament for cricket fans worldwide.
Will Pandya have a successful win as MI captain against GT? Or will Pandya face defeats via the hands of his old team? Do share your thoughts via the comments below.
