Bachchan, Khan's Old Rolls-Royces Fined ₹38 Lakhs in Bengaluru
Two Rolls-Royce cars, formerly owned by Bollywood stars Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan, were fined in Bengaluru.
The cars are now owned by a local businessman named Yusuf Sharif, also known as 'KGF Babu.'
He bought the cars but didn't update the paperwork.
Because the cars were being used in Bengaluru for a long time without paying local road taxes, the government fined them.
The fines totaled ₹38 lakhs.
This happened because of a mix-up in ownership and a failure to pay the required taxes for using the cars in the city.
