IC814: The Kandahar Hijack is making waves for its content and controversies. The web series helmed by Anubhav Sinha is based on the biggest and the longest plane hijack that happened in history. Based on Kandhar Hiajck (1999), the web series is being criticized for flouting many facts in the name of creative liberty.
However, now many survivors of the hijack are sharing stories about what exactly happened and also mentioned some incidents that took place but never found a place in the web series!
Ic 814: The Kandahar Hijack already explored and portrayed the Stockholm Syndrome between a flight attendant and a terrorist where he tries to take care of an attendant called Chhaya and even explains his point of view. However, a survivor admitted that many hostages developed Stockholm Syndrome, where they were getting psychologically attached to their survivors. However, the web series did not explore this part.
Here are five things that happened but were not shown in the web series IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack.
The hijackers presented themselves as those who were being wronged. In fact, a man from Karol Bagh promised to print their causes on pamphlets and distribute them all over.
A man had cute appendix pain, as narrated by a survivor, Jeevan Bhatt, for the YouTube channel Face To Face. The man was sent to a hospital, but he returned to the hijacked flight saying, “Main apne logon ke beech badhiya hoon, wahan naa khidki hai na darwaze hain, kam se kam yahan apne logon ke saath toh hoon.”
There was a Japanese girl on the flight who used to make sure that she changed every day. In fact, during the night, she would change into her night, open her recliner and go to sleep. During one of the conversations, she confessed, “What has to happen will happen.” The Japanese Girl also wore her makeup every day!
The hijackers pleaded for the people of Afghanistan and collected donations for the poor people. A sum of around 80,000 was donated to help the Afghanis!
A girl even took an autograph from one of the hijackers! When the negotiations were done, the hijacker, Burger, apologized to everyone for causing them trauma and asked them to pray for his safe journey back home!
IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack is streaming on Netflix. Check out the review of the web series here and the verdict of the show here.
