bindass: Jackie Shroff

Jackie Shroff is a ghost rider. No, the star has not sold his soul to the devil, but is the proud owner of a skeleton bike that, unlike the bare machine used in the ionic Nicholas Cage movie, has an iridescent silver ribcage for the fuel tank and a skull head to live up to its name. And Jackie calls his galloping human skeleton the "baap of all bikes."

The star, who introduced Bollywood to the romance of the mean machine in his move Hero (1983) and to the boy-toy's adrenaline-pumping charm in Yudh (1985), has got the special two-wheeler designed to show people "what a real bike" is all about.
Priced at a whopping Rs 3 lakh, the 350-cc silver monster has been modified by Vardenchi, Mumbai's premium chopper shop.

"I love heavy bikes, but the sleek Hayabusas are not my style. I have been searching for the real bike for a long time. One day, while surfing the Internet I spotted a bike made of bones. I went to Vardenchi with the photograph and in three months they delivered this mind-boggling machine. It is the baap of all bikes in India," said Shroff.

Enthusiasts can watch Shroff riding the hot wheels in the opening scene of his upcoming movie Kirkit.
