Katrina Kaif’s Car Decorated With Stickers of Her Favourite Cartoons The AristoCats

KAT-WOMAN: Katrina Kaif’s favoured seat in her car is the left rear one, and she has decorated it with stickers of her favourite cartoons

Katrina's Car Decorated With Cartoon Stickers

Not for nothing is she called Kat. Her favourite cartoon is The AristoCats and the reference point for her character in Farah Khan’s Tees Maar Khan is one of the cats from the cartoon serial. And if you think that’s a lot of cats you ain’t seen nothing yet.

Katrina Kaif’s car reflects her love for the cartoon character as well as speaks tonnes for the state of mind she is currently in. The left rear seat is surrounded by small stickers of all that makes her happy…she calls it her ‘happy space’.

“When I was dubbing for Raajneeti, the little urchins on the road would recognise my car when it would stop at a particular signal and would insist I buy stickers from them,” she explains with a smile. Not only did she buy them, she decorated her happy space with them and now they are the source of a lot of joy for her.

For a girl who is feted every day and who can buy anything that money can, Katrina has obviously learnt that happiness and money have very little to do with each other.

The city's first ever Cyclothon, consisted of two cycling events: the BSA Hercules India Cyclothon and Salman Khan's Being Human - Tour De Mumbai. The former was a Cyclothon for everyone and the second was a race for cycling professionals from across the world.

Starry cyclothon

There were cycling professionals from across the world who took part in the event for a cause. It was Salman Khan’s Being Human-Tour De Human event to promote conservation of nonrenewable resources of energy like petrol and environment.

It was on January 19, 2010, that the ‘Wanted’ boy actor had signed on the joint venture between Sport 18. Sports 18 is a sports marketing division of the Network18 group and ID Sports – a sports management company had joined hands with TI Cycles and the Being Human – the Salman Khan Foundation.

Salman Khan Promotes Mumbai Cyclothon, View Promotional Pictures Advertising the Event

That Salman Khan is a fitness freak is a known fact. Spending hours in the gym and often working out on his sets is not enough for this hot Khan. Many a times, the actor will take to cycling in the middle of the night to keep his fitness level high. The actor is known for often taking the cycling route to get to his sets at Film City in Goregaon from his home in Bandra. With his bodyguards following in his car, the actor makes his journey, often stopping to talk to his fans or sign autographs!

And now Sallu is asking you to join him. Backed by his Being Human Foundation, Salman Khan is now asking people all over the world to join him in India's first ever international cycling event - Mumbai Cyclothon.

“The Tour De Mumbai will be held at Bandra Reclamation on Sunday, 21st February. The whole reason Salman agreed to join this event is to promote the practice of cycling in the city. He wants everyone to get healthy, and this is his way of contributing,” says a close friend of the actor, “Salman is inviting all his fans – whether u are a cyclist or not!”

Salman Khan Advertises Mumbai Cyclothon

The ride will have participants from all walks of life, including amateur cyclists, cycling enthusiasts, working professionals, housewives and school children. The maximum distance covered will be 24 km. But we don’t think that will deter our superstar, who is used to cycling long distances.


The Mumbai Cyclothon — the Tour de Mumbai cycle race at Bandra Reclamation is promoted by Being Human — the Salman Khan Foundation, to encourage the practice of cycling in the city, he will participate himself “for quite a bit... but not the whole distance”. Riding besides amateur cyclists, enthusiasts, professionals, housewives and schoolchildren, lending muscle to the charity event, not to mention adding colour and festivity.

Salman is no stranger to cycling, this is something he’s been doing even while learning to walk, and now he owns several professional bikes that he uses to get around the city. Some are with 28 gears, some with 14, though he doesn’t use the gears so much. “Cycling gives me a kick,” he says recalling his BMX days as a boy when he would perform stunts, jumps and bunny-hops on the bike. “Anything that increases momentum is a high, besides which it’s a damn good form of cardio and the best way to prevent pollution. Everybody in the city can afford a cycle. Go on, get one, it keeps you fit, and in Mumbai’s peak hour traffic — you reach your destination faster. When I travel by car, I’m on the phone, but when I cycle to a shoot, I get my workout done on the journey, and my evening is free.”

People have often seen Salman cycling from his Galaxy Apartments residence in Bandra to location shoots at Film City in Goregaon. “It takes me around 54 minutes,” he says, “which is less than a cardio workout. And I cycle like the postman or a doodhwala, slowly, I don’t bhagao the bike.” He has advice for first-time cyclists. “The first three-four days, your butt will be sore, but that’s like in any other exercise. Don’t give up.”

He believes cycling helps people retain their youth for the longest while. “People past their youth, get it back once they get onto a bike,” he says. “For anything in life, if you have the enthusiasm and interest, there’s no way old age will get you.” And there’s one more thing cycling does for Salman Khan. It keeps him rooted and gives him a sense of being connected with life and reality. “In the future, if all that I have is gone, the cycle will still be there... so it’s best that I get used to it,” he smiles as he mounts his bike for a practice ride.

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.
