IndiGo Flight Attendant Viral Video: Sometimes, heroes don’t wear capes, they hold umbrellas. A video of an IndiGo ground staff member, Arun Charan, is melting hearts on Instagram for all the right reasons. The short clip, shared by IndiGo crew member '@iammayuriarora,' shows Arun helping passengers get off a plane during heavy rain. But what stood out wasn’t just his job; it was how he did it. While most people stayed dry, Arun kept walking back and forth in the pouring rain, holding an umbrella over each passenger with a calm smile. He made sure everyone was safe and comfortable, even as he got soaked himself. But one moment in the video hit viewers hard. A male passenger simply took the umbrella from Arun and walked off, without even offering to share it or saying thank you. That quiet moment, where Arun stood there getting drenched, said more than words ever could.
The video’s caption summed it up perfectly: “It's raining. He's walked ten times to keep others dry. One man takes the umbrella without even sharing it with him or saying thanks. And somehow, you feel ashamed… Let's be kinder to those who serve us!”People across Instagram are calling Arun a true hero. Many said the clip brought tears to their eyes and reminded them to never take small acts of service for granted.

The video, shared just a day ago, garnered 5 million views from people. One user wrote, "Unfortunately, in India, respect is directly proportional to the money a person earns, his social stature." "To the man who took the umbrella and just walked off without even a word of gratitude or just a thank you. If you ever come across this video and this comment, man..I FEEL PITY FOR YOU!!" a second user added.
"I literally teared up watching this reel, and his smile is such a pure soul, god bless him. We definitely have no civic sense, thank you for sharing such meaningful content," added a third user. "Money can buy a flight ticket… but not manners. Took his umbrella without even asking—and look at him still smiling! That’s called grace under pressure… with a splash of silent judgment," added another user.
"This video broke my heart. Kindness costs nothing, but it can change lives. A heartfelt 'thank you' can make someone's day. Let's spread kindness and gratitude," added a fifth user. "True dedication is when someone stands in the rain so others can stay dry and still manages to smile through it all. Your selflessness and spirit don’t go unnoticed. Thank you for leading by example, even when the skies open up," another user added.
