Less than a minute after takeoff, the aircraft crashed into the BJ Medical College and Hospital in Ahmedabad and exploded into flames.

The plane was headed for London’s Gatwick Airport in the United Kingdom with 242 people on board, and only one survived the crash.

In a report by Brut India, Anju’s relative shared the woman’s last WhatsApp status she shared 30 minutes before the crash.

According to the relative, around 30 minutes before the plane crashed, Anju updated her WhatsApp status that said:

“Man is a toy.”

The relative added:

"It was one of her statuses. She used to upload such a status."

Anju hailed from Kurukshetra. She married in 1990, and her husband, who worked as an engineer in the oil industry, died a few years ago.

The relative said:

"She kept the whole family united. From celebrating birthdays, anniversaries to managing all the events. She was the one who used to wish everyone on their birthdays and anniversaries."

Anju had two daughters, Nimmi and Honey. While Nimmi lived in London, Honey lived in India.

The woman was planning to stay with Nimmi in London for six months.

In the video, the woman’s sister was seen crying over her death, detailing how she heard the news from another of their sister.

The sister said:

“My sister called me saying, ‘our sister’s plane crashed’. My sister is gone. She video called me in the morning at 11-12, but I couldn’t receive the call. She also called our sisters and my sister-in-law in the morning. She called me the day before the accident, and she even met me before leaving. Everything is finished. She was like a big brother to us.
