Adnan shared that he had been using the service since its early days, but his latest experience left him disappointed. He alleged that no one was actively waiting to receive him and his team upon their arrival. He also blamed the service for failing to inform him about a five-hour flight delay in advance.

He wrote, "Our flight was delayed by @airindia five hours (which in itself was appalling!), a fact that Pranaam knew, but they only informed us after we had gone through the entrance security. Had they informed us beforehand, we would have easily avoided coming earlier to the airport & been sitting comfortably at home. Instead, because of their negligence and carelessness, we had to endure this long tiring wait at the airport."

'Female staff member was completely rude'

The singer further alleged that the staff member was unaware of where to take them to access the fast-track facility for First and Business Class passengers, leaving him and his team to navigate the process themselves.

He wrote, "When she was reprimanded again, instead of being apologetic, she tried to snap back, for which she was immediately shut down. Extremely bad conduct and disappointingly unprofessional! This is the 2nd time Pranaam has misbehaved. You charge for these services and have a monopolistic attitude which is extremely arrogant, infinitely annoying & egregiously disrespectful. I’m once again extremely disappointed in the staff for this incident."
