Microsoft outage: Arjun Rampal was forced to book another flight due to malfunctioning servers

Actor Arjun Rampal was one of the several victims of the now infamous Microsoft outage. The ‘Rock On’ star was recently forced to book another flight as Microsoft’s cloud services got disrupted. A significant global Microsoft outage caused flight delays in Delhi, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Pune, and Mumbai. Rampal, speaking to ANI, informed the media that he had to catch an earlier flight because the servers were down.

The ‘Darr Na Zaroori Hai’ actor told the news agency, “Their servers are down, I don't know what has happened. I also have a ticket for another airline. I am going there.” When asked about any further information on the cause of the delay, the actor joked, “Are mujhe nahi pata bhai, unse puchhiye (I don't know, you should ask the airlines).”

The Microsoft outage disrupted booking and check-in services for several airlines, including IndiGo, Akasa Airlines, and SpiceJet. Additionally, the incident impacted various businesses such as banks, telecom companies, and TV and radio broadcasters. This widespread disruption was linked to the global outbreak of the notorious blue screen of death error on Windows workstations, causing significant operational issues.


On the work front, Rampal was last seen in the action drama 'Crakk'. He will be next seen in Ramesh Thete's The Battle of Bhima Koregaon and Abbas-Mustan's 3 Monkeys.
