Artist Clarifies Painting on Airplane Window Was on Transparent Sheet, Not Window
Indian artist Mitali Salunke shared a video of painting a Lord Ganesha portrait appearing on an airplane window, which sparked online criticism over alleged property damage and safety concerns. Some social media users believed she painted directly on the aircraft window, raising worries about damage and flight safety. Salunke later clarified the artwork was done on a transparent sheet attached to the window, not the window itself, and shared proof to dispel the controversy.
