Passengers on a Finnair flight from Helsinki to New Delhi on Jan. 26, India’s Republic Day, were treated to a rousing Bollywood dance to the tune of “Deewangi, Deewangi” from the movie Om Shanti Om.
Nearly 50 Finnair crew dressed in salwar kameez and traditional Indian attire gyrated and frolicked through the aisles to the delight of surprised passengers.
Helena Kaartinen, a flight attendant who came up with the idea, said they chose “Deewangi Deewangi” because of its English chorus “All hot girls put your hands up and say/ Om Shanti Om/ All cool boys come on make some noise and say Om Shanti Om.”
