Allegedly, she opened her pet carrier to calm her noisy dog, causing panic among the co-passengers. This incident occurred during a flight from Delhi to Goa. Adhana, along with a family member, boarded the flight at Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport. The airline's standard procedure required keeping the pet carrier in the cabin without opening it.
As the plane took off, the uncomfortable dog began to make noises. In response, Adhana opened the carrier and placed the dog on her lap, leading her co-passengers to object to the presence of the animal.
