Shahrukh Khan gets the biggest vanity van in Bollywood. It is a whopping 14 meter long and costs 3.5 crore. The biggest van in Bollywood so far, it has been designed keeping SRK's tastes in mind. It seems since SRK is a techno-freak, the van has been designed accordingly.
Shahrukh Khan's van is like a palace on wheels. "Its more like space ship. It's not just technologically well equipped with computers etc but is aesthetically futuristic in design. Shah Rukh knew exactly what he wanted right down to where a plug point is. The actor had several meetings with Dilip and his son before finalizing on the design."
Apart from the usual drawing room and resting rooms, this van has a room which no star in B-Town has a workout room complete with all kind of latest gym equipments. The van has many unique tricks like when it's stationary it becomes wider to increase floor space and some of the rooms expand.
The van designed by ace car designer Dilip Chabria took three months to design. Shah Rukh says, "It's just a van. That's all." Though Dilip Chabria is reluctant to give details about the van he says, "I am highly impressed and surprised at Shah Rukh's level of knowledge and involvement at the design stage. Designing the van was our most difficult, ambitious and fastest project that we have ever done in the last 16 years."
