Shobhinaw Satyaa, the actor who plays Neem Karoli Baba in the hit film Hanuman Ansh, has commended Flydubai pilot Smit Machchhar for his remarkable display of courage. According to Satyaa, Machchhar's story of finding strength from chanting the Hanuman Chalisa during a midair incident has deeply moved devotees. The film Hanuman Ansh, produced for a budget of Rs2 crore, has now grossed Rs400 crore worldwide, surpassing other notable films such as 3 Idiots, Kantara, and Krrish 3.
Machchhar informed Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi that reciting the Hindu devotional prayer helped him stay strong during the ordeal, and his account has garnered widespread attention. Satyaa, speaking at a recent India Today event, noted that stories of bravery often seem distant and unrelated to our own time. However, he believes that such accounts, like Machchhar's, serve as a reminder that courage and conviction are still prevalent in our lives today.
The pilot's experience, Satyaa suggests, reinforces the significance of the Hanuman Chalisa and the spiritual teachings of Neem Karoli Baba, which are central themes explored in the film.
