TV actress Payal Rohatgi is not happy. What's bugging her? Well, it's the unprofessional behaviour of the Jet Airways ground staff, which she claims led to her being offloaded from the flight.

Sharing her 'anguish' and 'anger' over the alleged snub on social media, the former Bigg Boss contestant claimed that she had been offloaded by the airline for being a 'Hindu'.

Payal and her boyfriend, wrestler Sangram Singh, were supposed to take a 6:50 am flight to Kerala, but reportedly reached the airport at 6:20.

Payal revealed in a Facebook live post that they were subsequently offloaded from the flight and suggested that the staffers who were Muslims targetted them for thir religion.

She took to Twitter and Instagram to express her anger and called herself a warrior and felt her celebrity status was also to blame.

But people on the social media paltforms were not having any of it and blasted her for giving the entire incident a communal hue. They castigated her and suggested that next time she should 'reach the airport on time'.
