Yes indeed MK has been operating to MAA for a while - again once a week - been around for years now. The more recent change was a triangular service - it used to be a MAA-MRU-MAA, but not its a MRU-BLR-MAA-MRU (so on the inbound there is a painful layover in BLR).

Still on - it operates BLR-CTU-PVG - CA 426 operates BLR-CTU-PVG on 2,4,7 early am arriving around noon into PVG.
PVG-CTU-BLR departs PVG at 5pm, arrives BLR at 0020 on 1,3,6.
It's a A319 aircraft - can't be too comfortable for such a long journey.
