Meghraj (Gujarat), A year ago, 18-year-old Aryan Asari was an anonymous schoolboy from a remote village in Gujarat's Aravalli district who had never seen an aircraft from such close quarters.
Today, the teenager is known as the "Aeroplane Boy" across his village and neighbouring areas, thanks to a mobile phone video that accidentally captured the final moments of the ill-fated Air India flight that crashed in Ahmedabad on June 12 last year, killing 260 persons.
