Family's In-Flight Homemade Meal on IndiGo Flight Sparks Mixed Reactions Online
A video of a family serving an elaborate homemade meal, including samosas and theplas, on an IndiGo flight has sparked mixed reactions online.

While some viewers found the scene amusing and defended their right to bring food onboard, others questioned the appropriateness of such a large spread in a confined cabin, citing concerns about space, smells, and consideration for fellow passengers.
