However, she missed the flight as she reached the airport late. “Her team had alerted the airline officials that she wa s stuck in traffic and requested SOURCE for her

boarding pass, but they were told that it would be handed over to actor when she reached the airport. Finally, she wasn’t allowed to board the flight because she had reached too late,” shares a source close to Kajal.

Even after repeated requests from Kajal, the airline’s ground staff wouldn’t budge and she was not allowed to board the air craft. “She reached 20 minutes prior to the departure time and was carrying only a handbag. She was very upset because she requested to speak to the manager or higher authoritie­s but wasn’t given the opportunit­y,” he adds.

The actor may not have been physically present for the audio function but thanks to modern technology, she was able to address the gathering in Hyderabad via video conference and share her experience of working in the film.
