Air India Crash: Last rites of cabin crew Roshni Songhare performed in Dombivli

NEW DELHI: The last rites of 26-year-old cabin crew Roshni Songhare, who tragically lost her life in Air India flight 171 crash in Ahmedabad, began on Friday in her hometown of Dombivli. Her body was taken to the crematorium for the last rites, where hundreds of of people came to the crematorium to attend the final rites.Roshni had only recently begun flying international routes with Air India, fulfilling a dream she had nurtured since childhood. Just two years ago, she had moved from a cramped 100-square-foot rented room in Mumbai’s Malabar Hill to a slightly larger apartment in Dombivli’s Rajaji Path with her parents and two brothers.Her father, Rajendra, worked as a technician, and despite the family’s limited means, Roshni’s relatives rallied around her—supporting her education and paying for her training to become a flight attendant. She first landed a job with SpiceJet, working on domestic flights, before joining Air India, which gave her the opportunity to fly overseas.She was set to get engaged in November to a man from Thane, but the tragedy has left those dreams in ruins. Beyond her aviation career, Roshni was also a rising social media influencer, with over 67,000 followers on Instagram.
