The fatal accident involving Ayazuddin, younger son of former Indian cricket captain Mohammad Azharuddin on Sunday morning, is believed to have sent waves of fear in the spine of top Tollywood hero Junior N T Rama Rao.
Like Ayaz, Jr NTR is also fond of super bike racing. In fact, he is the first customer in India to buy the super bike, Harley Davidson Night Rod Special. He bought the bike at a cost of Rs 18.95 lakh (ex showroom cost in Hyderabad), a few months ago.
Like Ayaz, Jr NTR also has the habit of regularly riding his favourite bike on the Outer Ring Road in the early hours, as there would not be much rush and nobody would recognize him. He would wear helmet and zoom on the empty roads just for fun.
However, after Ayaz’s accident, Jr NTR is believed to be scared of venturing out with his super bike.
“It will take at least for a few months for him to recover from the shock. He will be doubly careful in riding the bike hereafter,” sources said.
Apart from Jr NTR, others who have booked the high-end super bikes include Naga Chaitanya, Allu Arjun, Anad, Anushka and Mumaith Khan. They are also now in second thoughts in taking out their bikes.
