Near-death experience: Hania, Maya, Wahaj, others celebrate post safe return after turbulent flight

Humour seemed to be a balm in a particularly grim moment

Actor Hania Aamir took to her Instagram Stories to wish a bunch of stars and industry folks a happy birthday - when it isn't anyone's birthday, to begin with. The Mere Humsafar star shared a series of birthday wishes, commemorating Wahaj Ali, Maya Ali, Momina Iqbal, Noman Syed, and Fahad Hussain. While the former three are actors, Noman is a publicist, and Fahad heads a local talent agency.

What they all had in common, it seems, was that they were apparently on a very turbulent flight together. Having made it out, Hania celebrated her new lease on life with these Stories and an Instagram post, wherein she wrote, "Declaring 17th May as my second birthday. Don’t ask why."

With a little digging, there was some form of confirmation that the thread that united all the recipients of the birthday wishes was indeed a terrifying flight. For one thing, the comments section under Hania's post had a few tell-tale signs.

"It was nothing less than a miracle," wrote Maya, clearly referring to something that these folks had been through together. Yashma Gill's comment seemed to provide more clarity, though. "The terrifying flight that I've taken yesterday - I've also gotten a new lease on life," wrote the star.

In the midst of this unusual situation, Zara Noor Abbas Siddiqui emerged as an unexpected hero. Not only did she check in on everyone who had been on the flight, but her efforts also paved the way for further clarification. Fahad took to his Stories and expressed his gratitude to Zara for reaching out and showing concern for all those who had experienced the near-death encounter.

Commending the industry for its unity and genuine care for one another, Fahad wrote, "Thank you Zara for your call and for showing concern for all of us who had a near-death experience on a domestic flight last night. Glad to see that we all stand united as an industry where people genuinely care about each other."

While the exact details of the turbulent flight remain undisclosed, it is evident that the incident brought the celebrities closer together, fostering a sense of camaraderie and support within the entertainment industry. The episode serves as a reminder of the unpredictability of life and the importance of cherishing each moment.
