A British Airways flight, while taking off from Hyderabad, caused a major scare when a tyre burst. Leaving from Shamshabad International Airport on Tuesday night, it was carrying about 200 passengers. During the takeoff, the pilot noticed the burst rear tyre and called it in at once to the Air Traffic Tower and applied the emergency brakes.
Thanks to his timely action, the passengers that included Nagarjuna, the Telugu star were safe. Otherwise they would have hit the side wall. Fortunately, all is well. It has been said that the actor and his companions returned to the city.
