Rapper Badshah, who is known to be an avid automobile enthusiast, recently teased his fans with a sneak peek of his new purchase on social media. The post included a video of a custom name tag reveal on his newly acquired beast. The post quickly gained a lot of attention, which he captioned as "zen wale ladke," referring to his very first automobile purchase when he discovered success in the music industry.
Badshah has elevated his impressive automotive collection with the acquisition of a Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II. This new purchase makes him the first India-born music personality to own one of the world's most luxurious automobiles, showcasing his refined taste in automobiles. As a result, Badshah now joins the elite circle of Indian personalities, including Mukesh Ambani, Allu Arjun, Shah Rukh Khan, Bhushan Kumar and Ajay Devgn, who are proud owners of various luxurious editions of the Rolls-Royce.
The Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II epitomises unparalleled luxury and sophistication. It comes with an on-road price starting at approximately Rs 12.45 crore in Mumbai. It is powered by a robust 6.75-litre twin-turbo V12 engine that delivers a formidable 563 bhp and 850 Nm of torque for effortless and graceful performance.
This flagship SUV from the brand is named after the largest diamond ever discovered and has been refreshed with an illuminated grille, new slimmer vertical headlights, and optional 23-inch wheels. Inside, the cabin features a redesigned dashboard with a full-width glass panel and a new âspirit of ecstasy clock cabinet' alongside bespoke luxuries such as a starlight headliner and intricately placed seat perforations. The Series II continues to set the benchmark for opulence, craftsmanship, and state-of-the-art technology, offering occupants the legendary 'magic carpet ride'.
This acquisition marks Badshah's second Rolls-Royce. He previously owned the Rolls-Royce Wraith. This further enhances his reputation as a connoisseur of high-end automobiles adding to the remarkable fleet, which also includes the Lamborghini Urus, Porsche Cayman, Audi Q8, Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, BMW 640d, Mercedes-Benz S-Class and GLS 350d, reflecting his discerning taste for excellence and performance.
In related news, Badshah recently conquered North America with the highest-grossing and most expensive Indian hip hop tour in the region, generating ticket revenues exceeding USD $ 6 million and production costs surpassing USD $ 2 million.
