In the video gone viral, two Indian men are seen having a verbal spat as the crew tries to intervene. One man says ‘shanti se baith (sit quietly)’, to which the other person says, ‘hath neeche kar (get your hands down)’. All hell breaks lose as the verbal spat turns into a physical altercation with one passenger slapping the other.

The man removes his eyewear and hits the other man, and other passengers also join the brawl. Meanwhile, the second person simply tries to defend himself.

Following the incident, Bureau of Civil Aviation Security issued a statement which read – “We’ve taken note of the viral video, which shows a fight between passengers on a Thai Airways flight to Kolkata”. A report has been sought in the matter.
