Emraan Hashmi with his new swanky car
Emraan Hashmi, who is basking in the success of his latest release Tiger 3, seems to have found an extravagant way to celebrate. The actor, who played the lead antagonist opposite Salman Khan in Tiger 3, has brought home a new luxury car in the new year.
Emraan Hashmi has bought a swanky Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge. He was recently clicked in Mumbai enjoying a ride in his newly bought car. With an ex-showroom price of Rs 12.25 crore, this acquisition places it among the most expensive cars in India.
Videos and pictures of the actor taking a ride in his car are doing the rounds on social media. A paparazzo account posted a clip of the actor, where he can be seen waving at the people as he talks on the phone while seated in his new car.

'Tiger 3' sees Katrina Kaif returning as former ISI agent Zoya alongside Salman Khan's super spy, Avinash Singh Rathore. Hashmi said it was enjoyable to share the screen space with Salman as they already knew each other. "And he is very comfortable to be around with. I'm fond of him and he is fond of me, so it was easy and a joy working on the set with him. I was having fun, he was having fun with the action bit. We had a good action team and it was very interesting to see the kind of moves we had in the final fight."
Casting for "Tiger 3" came as a surprise for Hashmi who thought the film will be something similar to what Sharma has directed in YRF when he was approached to meet the director. Sharma is known for movies such as "Band Baaja Baarat", "Ladies Vs Ricky Behl", "Shuddh Desi Romance" and "Fan". "He said it is for the 'Tiger' franchise. It (meeting) was during COVID-19, so I had my mask on, I removed my mask and he was like, 'You got a chocolate face but it's for the villain in the film!'. He was like, 'Emraan, if you don't mind, we want to do a test'. I was like, 'Go for it'. It is very important for a huge film to be clear if someone fits in visually for the character."
