Impressed by Air Indias services, Shah Rukh Khan on Sunday said “unofficially and unabashedly” he wants to declare himself as the ambassador of the national carrier.

Responding to the stars appreciation, Air India said it is humbled by King Khans words. Debt-laden Air India is working on ways to turn around its fortunes and there have been instances of the airline facing flak from customers for poor services.
