This year, the most awaited and the biggest auto expo took place once again in Greater Noida in February where many automobile manufacturers introduced best of the best, futuristic cars.
One such car was in display by Hyundai which was launched by the Badshah of Bollywood; Shahrukh Khan. The King Khan has been actively associated with the brand Hyundai since 1998. Actor who unveiled the car in the expo told the media that he is still “The Santro Wala” and I tell this one thing to everyone associated with the company including the MD.
He revealed that now he is the corporate brand ambassador and has to talk about Creta but his all time favorite car is still the Santro.
When asked why he loves the model so much, he replied, “I love the name because certain things have great name and Santro is one of them. He further added that though Creta is very good along with others as well but Santro has a ring to it.
The actor also recollected the memories when he first became the ambassador of the brand. He stated, “It was a big moment for me and also an honor because it was that time when he just started being in Mumbai to be an actor and adding at that time there was no concept of brand ambassadorship or even modeling for products.
The actor said that 2 main things happened in last 22 years and that were, one, he had a son and second, he became the ambassador of Hyundai India so, he is like a father of Hyundai in India. He further added that Indians have trusted the brand that adds as a cherry on cake of being a success story in a diversified country. Talking about the new Creta, the actor said that the company has given it a bold design that is set to rewrite a new era of dominance in SUV segment with its masculinity.
Hyundai hopes to be back by the charisma of Shahrukh Khan and believes the car would be able to rule the Indian roads again.
