Mumbai, April 29, 2022: Over 4500 employees of GO FIRST (formerly known as GoAir) were in for a gala time at the special screening of the Bollywood movie “Runway 34” at INOX cinemas across 18 cities of India. The movie featuring Amitabh Bachchan, Ajay Devgn, and Rakul Preet Singh in lead roles was screened as a part of the company’s employee engagement program.

Speaking on the development, Kaushik Khona, Chief Executive Officer, GO FIRST said, “The movie is based on a landmark event in Indian aviation, and we are delighted to have it screened for our employees, over the first weekend, and what better place than INOX cinemas across the country to carry out this innovative employee engagement activity. Our employees are the driving fuel of our business, and their well-being is our primary focus. The past two years have been very stressful and with this initiative we want our employees to unwind and relax.
