“I felt like I was part of Airlift 2”: Lara Dutta shares harrowing experience of returning from Dubai amid US-Iran conflict Actress Lara Dutta has opened up about her tense experience of travelling back to India from Dubai amid the ongoing tensions linked to the Iran–United States conflict. The actress revealed that the journey felt so dramatic that she joked about being part of a sequel to the 2016 film Airlift. Earlier this month, the actor shared a video on Instagram revealing that she was stranded in Dubai with her daughter, Saira, during the conflict. She has now returned to India and, in a recent interview with Hindustan Times, spoke about the circumstances that led to the stressful journey. Lara said she had temporarily shifted to Dubai so that her daughter could train with a specific tennis coach there, while her husband, former tennis player Mahesh Bhupathi, was in London for work.
