Can anyone confirm if Fahad owns a Panamera. Awesome looking car indeed.

Fahad owns an Audi A6. The Panamera must be someone else' car.

Mammootty was shooting for V.K Prakash's movie yesterday near my office. Was lucky to get a glimpse of the actor when he came out of the Caravan and entered an Innova taxi parked close to the caravan. Spoke to Actor/Scriptwriter Shankar Ramakrishnan (Spirit, Bavuttiyude Namathil). Also spotted actor Abu Salim and director V K Prakash.

Here are the pictures

Notice the Mercedes Benz M class behind. Whose car is it?

The caravan. The star was inside this when I shot this. Notice the videocon dish outside. Was he watching TV inside?

He left both the car and caravan and left in an Innova taxi.
I was able to confirm that it was Mammootty who was shooting because of this thread. Both Vehicles' numbers were 369

Upcoming and promising new talent in Molly-wood, Amith Chakalakkal with his rides. If you guys are wondering where have you seen him, he had a strong supporting role in the blockbuster movie 'Honeybee' and we can see more of him in the sequel too.

Yes hes damn good on them, at a single point of time he has had more than 5 Japs ranging from Yamaha R1 in all the engine configs to a very super rare ZZR 1400 (Pic attached). If I had to put all the pics of his with all his rides I would rather have to start a new thread under his name. The guys dream is to do a lap on the Isle of Man TT and has got the chops for it. He just finished a track day on the Yas Marina Circuit in Qatar.

Yas marina circuit is in Abu dhabi, the track in Qatar is called "losail international circuit'

May he be blessed with b***s of titanium for the Isle of Mann, my favourite pass time is watching Isle of Mann videos on youtube, just cant enough ever. long live Mcguinness.

Shyam, I think M is confused between the Fz1 and CB1000, both does look pretty identical

More than enough Japs now, I think Amith must gun for an S1000 or RSV4 next

Vishnu, I indeed had a conversation with him about a possible new purchase, and he said he is more than happy with the Repsol and its performance. According to him, the Honda has the most usable power. More mods in the pipeline. A Bazzaz quick shifter, traction control and ECM and a bit of a tuning and the bike would be just a level below the SBK spec racers.

Ajith in his BMW, during the Ride from Pune to Chennai.

Does Ajith own two BMW bikes????

Yes, he bought a superbike and a cruiser.

Wow, this thread is any eye opener. For once, our so called Bollywood stars should learn from their South Indian counterparts.

Top of the line race-suits/helmets/boots & the guys know their stuff. Go Pro & IOMTT alike

Ajith puts up his Go Pro videos on You Tube? And does he write somewhere about his rides & bikes? (I know time constraints are there)

And the S1000RR's mantle has been taken over by the HP4 (as best road bike)

Ajit has 1 more career in professional racing (that chennai track and some European circuit formula cars as well) so he is more acquainted with gear and safety aspects of motoring.
