Do
you share your name with some of the most famous film characters which have
been brought to life by Bollywood actors and actresses? If so, you can get a
discount on air tickets. With a view to paying homage to iconic Indian cinema,
Virgin Atlantic airline has decided to offer discounted tickets to those who
have for their name one of the 12 most famous 'filmi' monikers in Bollywood.
Karan, Simran, Anthony, Tina, Vijay, Pooja, Arjun, Priya, Rahul, Kiran, Rohit
and Sonia are the 12 names which would bring discounts on tickets to passengers
sharing the same, an airline official said. The scheme is part of the Richard
Branson-owned airline's 'Feel like a Star' campaign, which aims to convey the
airline's hip, innovative and localised experience to flyers. "'Feel like
a Star' campaign highlights the unique experience of flying Virgin and will
surely connect with all Bollywood lovers. Last year, we flew over 1,000
passengers with these shortlisted filmy names and are looking forward to
welcoming many more Rahuls, Priyas and Rohits on-board this summer," said
Stephen King, General Manager, Virgin Atlantic - India. The airline will give a
5 per cent discount on Economy class tickets and a 10 per cent waiver on
Premium Economy bookings for passengers with the popular 'filmi' names. The
bookings are open from March 18 to April 17 for travel up to July 31.
