Actor Dulquer Salmaan is a well-known car enthusiast much like his superstar dad. He owns a number of cars and recently talked about why he does not want to reveal the exact number of cars he has.
“It’s not only an exotic collection. I have a lot of used cars, I also restore cars,” he said in an interview with Top Gear India. He went on to say that he can’t reveal the exact number of cars in his collection as that might get him into “trouble”.
Dulquer also revealed that he loves to listen to songs while driving and that the songs can influence his driving speed.
“My driving is affected by the kind of music I listen to. If it’s a faster song, I drive faster. In fact, when I used to commute to work in Chennai and in Dubai, I used to get so much anxiety from road rage because there was just bad driving by people. That’s why I started to listen to Frank Sinatra and Dima, just to calm myself. I used to drive slowly and not get affected by how people were driving,” he said.
The actor also revealed his favourite road to drive on.
“Best road for me was Route 1 in California. We did from SFO (San Francisco) to LA (Los Angeles). I did the coastal road from Monterey and it was a Sunday and you could see all the car clubs out, the Ferraris. The road is so gorgeous, it’s unbelievable. You are coming from such a height and suddenly you are at sea level. I have done it twice, I loved it so much. My dad and all were also there but they fell asleep. After they were out, I was like yaay.”
Dulquer was last seen in R. Balki’s Chup: Revenge of the Artist for which he received critical acclaim. He was also seen in Tamil-Telugu bilingual Sita Ramam last year.
While he played a serial killer in Chup, Sita Ramam features him in the role of a lieutenant officer in the Indian army. The story is set against the Kashmir backdrop of the 1960s and also has Mrunal Thakur and Sumanth in key roles.
Dulquer currently awaits the release of the upcoming Malayalam gangster drama, King of Kotha. The movie will feature Shabeer Kallarakkal, Gokul Suresh, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Chemban Vinod Jose, and Shammi Thilakan in significant roles.
