Bengaluru: Even though the Vikram lander has not had a soft landing on the lunar surface, it has definitely thronged ISRO chief K Sivan into popularity.

In a video that has been making rounds on social media saw the scientist getting a hero’s welcome in a flight. In a scene that looked straight out of a concert, the scientist, under who leadership saw the launch of Chandrayaan 2 a few months ago, was seen walking into an Indigo flight and taking his seat amidst passengers and flight crew members recognizing and cheering him. Sivan was also seen clicking selfies with flight crew members as passengers took pictures from him in the flight.
