The vintage bike holds a special place in the Khan family's heart, as it was gifted to Salim Khan by his son Sohail on his birthday.

Triumph Tiger 100,1956 also won the 'Best Restored Motorcycle' award at 'Vintage Car Fiesta 2013' in Mumbai (organized by the Vintage & Classic Car Club of India).

In an interview, Salim Khan reminisced about his love for motorcycles, mentioning that he wasn’t alone in being drawn to these iconic machines. He shared that Hollywood legends like Marlon Brando and James Dean also owned Triumph motorcycles, a fact he had read in international film magazines. Khan fondly recalled his first ride on his bike, a journey from Ratlam to his home in Indore, which boasted a unique registration number: Jaora 1.

On the professional front, Salman Khan is all set for his upcoming release, Sikandar, where he will star opposite Rashmika Mandanna. The Dabangg actor is currently filming in Hyderabad under tight four-tier security due to ongoing death threats from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, a concern that has required heightened precautions.
