The 30-second video clip begins as a dispute is already underway on the plane as annoyed passengers are calling out. Kumar, who appears to have paused his announcement to listen to their complaints, had reportedly just explained why their flight was due to be delayed further.
"You're lying," a man calls out in English.
The suspect then runs towards Kumar and lunges forward to strike him. The pilot rears backwards to try to protect himself and the flight attendant tries to use a trolley to block the man's path and prevent a further attack. Another passenger then comes forward and tries to pull the aggressor away. The visibly upset flight attendant screams in English at the suspect: "You cannot do this!"
Pilot attacked by passenger over flight delay
Viral footage shows an IndiGo traveler running down the plane's gangway to strike the co-pilot in the face as other flyers cry out in alarm.
