Renowned cricket voice Harsha Bhogle took to X to express his displeasure over services by budget carrier IndiGo. The famous commentator chided the airline for always putting their passengers last.
"One day I am going to invite people from @IndiGo6E home for dinner and ask them to wait outside the door till the table is laid and the food is cooked. #Rude. Always #IndigoFirstPassengerLast," Bhogle posted on the microblogging site.
