— Hinduvaadi Tapan (@hinduvaaditapan)Famous for their unique maneuvers, the Suryakiran team's performances encompass loop maneuvers in victory formation, barrel rolls, and crafting various shapes in the sky. However, several Indians sitting at their homes to watch the blockbuster final were miffed with the broadcasters for focusing on pre-match presenters instead of showing the mesmerising air show by the Suryakiran team.
Here's a look at how netizens reacted:
Starsports is the shittiest channel, MF's are showing us ads instead of Suryakirans, pathetic 😡🤬

walo thoda focus airshow par bhi kar lo.. it feels insulting for the team.. the audience deserves to watch them perform at this important event .
— नादान परिंदा (@npreads_)The broadcaster focuses more on the commentators than the Suryakiran IAF airshow ffs
— Shardul (@FretboardGuy)Very poor coverage by by not showing Suryakiran performance. You can keep commentary on but no one wants to see commentator's face. distasteful
— Vivek desai (@vivekdesai_)thanks for showing crap commentary during ceremony
— Unsolved Mystery (@Unsolved312)You have ruined the Surya Kiran display show by unwanted footage wanted to see them performing
— Viplav Sahu (@viplavsahu)Why would you NOT show the SuryaKiran air show on tv? 🤦♂️ oh boy!!
— Sameer Mehta (@Sameer_Mehta)Someone please tell to focus on and keep quiet for sometime
— Samrat Mhatre (@Samratmhatre)*Suryakiran Performing* showing 4 people talking 💀
Horrendous broadcasting 🙄😒.
Star Sports preferring to show the ugly mugs of Harbhajan and Kaif over the Suryakiran airshow🙄
