The bike is a dream come true for Sonu Sood who is a motorcycle lover
Sonu Sood's love for automobiles goes a long time back butu00a0 when it comes to Harley Davidson, it was one beauty he always yearned to own.u00a0 Recently while shooting for AB Corp's Bbuddha Hoga Tera Baap he got so inspired after watching Amitabh Bachchan (who plays an underworld don) ride a Harley Davidson that Sonu went and bought one foru00a0 himself!
The bigger the better: Sonu Sood rode a small bike in his college
days and had his eyes on this monster since then. File pic
Sonu said, "I guess when I saw the bike on the sets and saw Mr Bachchan riding it, it spurred me into action as well. I got a Harley booked for myself without telling anyone in the family! It is a timeless classic. I've appreciated the bike for a long time and had wanted to buy one. I love the sound of the Harley revving up, its quintessential roar that's such a trademark of this dream machine." Sonu plays a cop in Bbuddha Hoga Tera Baap.
"My character is ACP Karan Malhotra, who is a very loyal police officer, committed to fighting against the underworld in Mumbai. But I didn't get to ride the bike in the film." It is not just Sonu who is excited about this new purchase, but his whole family. "I took my sons and wife on the bike, and they loved it. My son even made me promise that I would drop him to school on the bike, which I think I will also enjoy!"
Sonu is very close to Salman Khan but does Sallu knows of this new addition to his automobile collection? "Salman doesn't know yet, but I will definitely ride the bike to his sets." Sonu elaborated, "I had a Hero Honda in college and wanted to own a bigger bike. I didn't get a bike till now because being an actor, its tough to travel by it."
