Bollywood's Badshah, Shah Rukh Khan, renowned for his luxurious lifestyle, has once again made headlines with the latest addition to his impressive automotive collection: the all-new Mercedes-Benz V-Class luxury MPV. Priced at a staggering Rs 1.40 crore, this gleaming Obsidian Black vehicle was recently spotted outside SRK's temporary residence, Puja Casa, confirming the buzz among fans and car enthusiasts alike. This acquisition marks another feather in the cap for a man who truly knows how to travel in style.
A 'Private Suite on Wheels' for the Khans Currently, Shah Rukh Khan is residing at Puja Casa while his iconic Bandra bungalow, Mannat, undergoes extensive renovations. He was seen alongside his celebrated interior designer wife, Gauri Khan, at the time of the V-Class's delivery. This detail is particularly fitting, as Mercedes-Benz markets the V-Class as a "private suite on wheels." Given Gauri's impeccable taste in luxury spaces, it’s no surprise the couple gravitated towards this rolling masterpiece of German engineering.
Joining an Elite Circle of Early Adopters Shah Rukh Khan now joins an exclusive club of early adopters for this newly launched MPV in India. Cricketer Hardik Pandya and his girlfriend Mahieka Sharma were among the first in the country to take delivery of the V-Class, making SRK one of the inaugural buyers of what is fast becoming India's most desirable luxury people-mover. Bookings for the model commenced in early March, with deliveries beginning towards the end of the month, highlighting the swiftness of SRK's acquisition.

The V-Class in SRK's Legendary Garage SRK's legendary garage, reportedly valued between Rs 30 crore and Rs 50 crore, includes exclusive vehicles like a Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupé and a Rolls-Royce Cullinan. The V-Class, at Rs 1.40 crore, might be considered one of the more 'accessible' vehicles in his collection, yet it compensates immensely with its sheer on-board comfort and practicality for both his family and entourage. It's a strategic addition, blending supreme luxury with everyday usability.
Balancing Stardom and Comfort: SRK's Professional Life On the professional front, Shah Rukh Khan remains as busy as ever. He is currently deep in production for his much-anticipated action thriller "King," helmed by director Siddharth Anand and slated for a Christmas 2026 release. The film features his daughter Suhana Khan in a pivotal role, alongside Abhishek Bachchan as the antagonist, and an ensemble cast including Jackie Shroff, Deepika Padukone, Jaideep Ahlawat, and Rani Mukerji. For a man shooting one of the most eagerly watched films of the year, few things probably beat sliding into a massage-equipped, Burmester-sound-drenched cabin after a gruelling day on set, making the V-Class an invaluable sanctuary.
