Due to constant death threats, Salman Khan recently acquired a new bulletproof Nissan Patrol SUV and was spotted traveling in it. At present, the mentioned vehicle has not even been launched in the Indian market but in view of his security, the actor imported the most popular and expensive vehicles in the South Asia market. While his car itself has garnered a lot of attention, the number plate, seems to have a special connection with the actor's birth date. The number plate of Salman's seven-seater SUV is 2727. That is the birth date of Salman. He was born on December 27, 1965.
Salman Khan's Nissan Patrol SUV is the second bulletproof vehicle, with the first being a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado SUV that he frequently uses for various occasions. The use of bulletproof cars is not uncommon for high-profile individuals, including celebrities, politicians, and executives, as a precautionary measure against potential attacks. Reportedly, this car will now replace Salman’s previous Toyota Land Cruiser LC200, which was modified with armour and bulletproof glass.
