Indian actresses enjoy 20-min air tour over Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur, Jan 6 (ANI): Indian actresses Archie Panjabi and Kajal Agarwal have revealed that they enjoyed their adventurous air-tour over Kuala Lumpur and looking at the Petronas Twin Towers from 457m above.

The two beauties, who were on a holiday, described the 20-minute air tour of the city on two Cessna 172 aircraft as a "liberating" experience and asserted that they had so much fun that now they want to get their own pilot's licenses, the Star Online reported.

Panjabi, who has won an Emmy award winner, said that she was a little nervous initially but once she was in the air she loved it.

The 'Bend it like Beckham' actress asserted that it was her tenth visit to Malaysia, and said that she spent a lot of time in Malaysia as a child, especially in Port Dickson, as she has her family here.

On the other hand, Agarwal, who showed no signs of nervousness when she eagerly climbed into the airplane, said that it was the second time she was doing this, as she loved the adrenaline rush it gave her.

The 'Thuppakki' actress said that she had a glimpse of life in Malaysia earlier when she stayed here for two months while shooting the Tamil film Modhi Vilayadu.

Both the actresses and their families were flown in four aircrafts piloted by Captain Andreas J Walther and his team from the Air Adventure Flying Club. (ANI)
