Emirates 652 Emergency

Diverted to Mumbai after declaring emergency, smoke in the cabin, apparently considered ditching.

Ditching would seem quite the overreaction in the circumstances!

I suspect it would have been in the first call to ATC explaining the situation and options, while they undertook more discovery on the cause.
