Can't Sonu sing in flight! Jet Airways cabin suspends crew for letting Sonu sing New Delhi: While music is considered to heal, singer Sonu Nigam wouldn't have thought for even a second before singing on a Jet Airways flight that it could do any harm to anyone.

The passengers on a Jet Airways flight from Jodhpur to Mumbai requested Sonu Nigam, who was in the same flight, to sing for them. Nigam obliged and then took place the in-flight concert on January 4.

The playback artiste sang two of his songs 'Panchhi nadiya' from the film 'Refugee' and 'Do pal ruka' from Yash Raj Films' 'Veer Zaara'. While everyone on the flight enjoyed the in-flight entertainment, it did not go down very well with the regulatory bodies for aviation.

Nigam used the flight announcement system to sing after it was allowed by the air hostesses of the Jet Airways flight. Now all five cabin crew members on the flight have been taken off of flight duty for inquiry.

Jet Airways has confirmed that the crew of the flight in question has been suspended. Pending inquiry and corrective action regarding the incident has been started.

A Jet Airways statement on the issue said, "All cabin crew on the flight have been taken off off flight duty for inquiry and corrective training to reinforce strict adherence to operating procedures".

The videos of Sonu Nigam singing mid-air were posted by some passengers on social media and they have gone viral.

In the video, Nigam can be heard saying "Arrey wah, aap bhi gaatein hain. My God, saare singer hain (Wow, you all can sing too. Everyone's a singer here)."
