Madhuri Dixit Nene and her husband Dr Sriram Nene are car freaks. From luxury vehicles to sportscars, the couple's garage boasts of a collection of high-powered motor beasts.

It’s speed meeting storytelling, and it’s an attempt at putting a bit of India’s vibrant soul onto a global stage. (Source: Instagram/@raghavakk)

Raghava mentioned that he painted his signature double-headed tiger, the symbol he pulls out for the big moments, stretched across a Ferrari that’s about to hit the tracks in Bahrain, Abu Dabi, Qatar, and Dubai. (Source: Instagram/@raghavakk)

"We’ve got Einstein and Iron Man in the mix, we’ve got Madhuri and Ram as astronauts, and we’ve woven the kids Arin and Ryan right into the story," he shared details of the design on social media. (Source: Instagram/@raghavakk)

Taking to Instagram, Dr Nene added, "Ragz, MD and me. What a dream team on a dream project. Never thought we could pull this off as we grew up very humbly. But it’s been a blessing and am grateful to everyone for their support as we represent all of u who aspire to be better and rise to new heights." (Source: Instagram/@raghavakk)

"This car represents our story and our hero backstory as Ragz delves into our lives and our role models and inspiration. Can’t wait to show you the bigger canvas of life that he has created for us," he further added. (Source: Instagram/@raghavakk)

Raghava was inspired by years of conversations with Ram and Madhuri about life, art, science, cinema, performance, training, imagination and doing hard things as a family for the project. (Source: Instagram/@raghavakk)
