Adil Hussain Tells Why He Drives Maruti WagonR and Not Mercedes

RC Verma

It is not often you see an established actor use mass-market cars and don’t associate their fame with luxury cars.

Popular actor Adil Hussain talks about why he loves to drive a Maruti WagonR. Actors generally tend to purchase opulent automobiles. There could be personal reasons for that. However, most celebrities from every sphere of life have this tendency to own lavish cars and other things to show off their stature. In some way, these objects define their status in society. But we rarely find any eminent personality with a different mindset. Adil Hussain is a prime example of the latter. Here are the details.

Why Adil Hussain Drives Maruti WagonR

The specifics of this case emerge from jadaunmanojsingh_official on Instagram. This is a short clip from a long interview with the actor. In this part, they are talking about how society defines the status and image of celebrities. Adil mentions that his neighbour used to ask him why he owned a Maruti WagonR. Obviously, this seems like a valid question to put to someone who has been a successful actor with decades of experience. Adil says that he loves the WagonR since it takes less space on the road, it is tall, it offers high mileage and the purpose of a car is to travel from point A to point B.

While this ought to be basic mentality, most people lack this mindset. They want to splurge as much on their cars as possible because they think that an expensive car defines their image in public. Adil Hussain goes on to say that a car brand like Mercedes-Benz, BMW, etc can’t define his image. He doesn’t need to own expensive cars to validate his achievements. That is an evolved thought which eludes most people. Still, this gives us an insight into the humble and modest nature of the actor.

Our View

Even though it might be extremely difficult to adopt this philosophy, this is certainly the right way to go. We get too attached to the materialistic things in our lives. These are unfortunately the times we live in. However, if we are able to pull ourselves above such notions, that is what will make us truly successful. Therefore, we can take this as an inspiration to remind ourselves what actually matters in life. It gives me immense satisfaction to report such stories.
