Pratik Joshi had been living in London for six years. A dedicated software professional, he had long dreamed of building a life abroad—for his wife and their three young children, who remained in India.
After years of paperwork, delays, and waiting, the dream was finally coming true.
Just two days earlier, his wife, Dr. Komi Vyas, a respected physician from Udaipur, resigned from her job.
The bags were packed. Goodbyes were said. The future was within reach.
This morning, the family of five boarded Air India Flight 171, hearts full of hope and nervous excitement.
They snapped a quick selfie.
Sent it to relatives.
A new life just minutes away.
But they never made it.
The plane went down.
Only one person survived.
None from the photo.
