Jaspal Bhatti Viral Video: A hilarious old TV skit from the 90s is suddenly blowing up on social media, and it's hilariously nailing the chaos at IndiGo airlines right now. This gem from Jaspal Bhatti's famous show "Full Tension" is making everyone laugh and cringe because it feels like it was made for today's mess. In the sketch called "SOS Airline," Bhatti plays a super-confused worker who's doing every job imaginable: checking in passengers, booking tickets, handling complaints, and even piloting the plane.
Titled "SOS Airline," the sketch shows Bhatti as a hilariously confused airline worker doing every possible job at once, checking in passengers, booking tickets, handling complaints, and even flying the plane. When a frustrated passenger asks why one person is running everything, he is shocked to see Bhatti at the complaint desk too. The punchline? The passenger shouts, "Akhir yeh SOS airline hai kya?" and Bhatti calmly replies, "Shortage of Staff Airlines."

There’s always a video that’s still relevant.
Stock market guys remember his PP Waterballs video every season - but this SOS Airlines video foreshadows the Indigo crisis as well!

The skit has gone viral at a time when IndiGo is struggling with real operational problems. New rules requiring pilots to have longer rest hours have exposed staffing gaps. Despite knowing about the changes, the airline apparently wasn’t ready, leading to widespread delays and cancellations.
By December 5, over 1,000 flights had been cancelled, and the situation worsened by December 7, with more than 220 flights scrapped just at Delhi and Mumbai airports. Passengers are stuck, frustration is high, and ticket prices are rising.

Social Media Reactions:
The video shared on X received many comments from users. "Very true. He was a genius nd his thought process was ahead of time," a user wrote. "Share market, Office Meetings, Airlines. Bhatti Saab had skits on all of them at least three decades ago! Truly ahead of his times!" a second user wrote. "True. What an artist!! Dignified, message-oriented comedy. Trend setter of sorts," wrote a third user. "Jaspal Bhatti was really ahead of his time. God bless his soul," added a fourth user.
What was made in the 1990s now perfectly mirrors the chaos at IndiGo in 2025. The clever satire, sharp humour, and biting social commentary show how some problems, like mismanagement and staff shortages, never really change; they just repeat themselves.
