Air India Sends Arshi Khan's Garments, Costumes, Baggage to Singapore as Model Alights at Mumbai - Shoot Cancelled due to Airline Goof-up Causing Actress Loss of Rs One Lakh

Published On : 17 Mar 2016   |  Reported By : Ronida Mumbai


Mumbai-based model and actress Arshi Khan suffered another major setback on Wednesday morning as she was travelling to Mumbai from Kolkata. As the feisty model alighted at Mumbai airport, she was made to wait for an hour for her baggage, only to be told by the airport staff that the aircraft had taken off to Singapore with her baggage on board due to human error.

Arshi Khan was scheduled to shoot for her music video titled BOOM BOOM dedicated to Shahid Afridi, and all her garments, costumes, jewelry and other artiste props were in her large suitcase which was checked in as "check in baggage". Arshi was flying via Air India from Kolkata to Mumbai. The flight was an international one with the aircraft flying via Mumbai to Singapore. While Arshi alighted at Mumbai, the aircraft took off to Singapore. Arshi waited for almost one hour for her luggage and after an hour was told by the ground staff that the aircraft had taken off with her luggage on board. Her luggage went to Singapore and Arshi was told that it would be returned to her only after 72 hours.

Says Arshi Khan:

"We were supposed to shoot my music video (dedicated to Afridi) on Thursday. However, all my costumes, luggage, jewelry, etc were erroneously sent to Singapore by Air India, while I got off at Mumbai.

Air India/Indian Airlines has issued Arshi Khan a lost baggage receipt and are tracking the luggage. A spokesperson for the airline regretted the error and apologized for the goof up. However, Arshi Khan is not ready to accept an apology. I have lost a lot of money due to the airline's mistake. How can they just send such a huge piece of baggage to Singapore, when the passenger alights at Mumbai? she fumed.

Meanwhile in a double whammy for the firebrand actress, a second fatwa was reportedly issued in Pakistan against Arshi Khan today for publicly stating that she would break the security cordon around the Pakistani players and kiss Afridi in public. Arshi Khan has also gone on record and given interviews to Tv channels in India and Pakistan stating that she is three months pregnant with Afridi’s baby and will go ahead with the delivery.

A Maulana from a small district close to Lahore has reportedly issued the fatwa on Wednesday morning during the early morning Namaz (prayers) and stated that all Muslims in India and Pakistan must teach Arshi Khan a good lesson. The religious leader also chided Afridi for not speaking out in the matter. “His silence means that he has accepted all her allegations,’ the Maulana said during a religious discourse, as reported by Pakistani online media and Tv.

Earlier in November last year a fatwa was issued against Arshi Khan for posting on social networking site Twitter that she had a physical relationship with Pakistan cricketer Shahid Afridi. Arshi expressed her “disappointment” at the development, according to a Zee News report.

In September, Arshi had posted on Twitter, saying:” Yes, I had sex with Afridi! Do I need the Indian media’s permission to sleep with someone? It’s my personal life. For me it was love.”

Reportedly the fatwa was issued by a section of the Pakistan clergy.

Model and actress Arshi Khan shot with international fashion, glamour and art nude photographer Lynn Baxter for Shahid Afridi. Arshi flew to Kolkata to meet up with the renowned photographer and shoot with him. Lynn Baxter was impressed with Arshi Khan’s ability to shoot art-nude concepts and has offered her a role in his to-be-launched Hollywood film. According to our sources, Lynn Baxter who has worked with several top Hollywood stars, has offered Arshi Khan a main lead in his festival film – the name of which our source refused to reveal – which will go on floor in April 2016.

Photographer Lynn Baxter is known for his intricate photography and magic with light effects and can give even a simple image or normal pose a very different treatment with the use of various light and color effects. He has shot art and glamour nudes with several Indian models, but is globally known for his magical photographic play with lights while shooting with Hollywood stars.
