Inspired by Salman Khan, Zaheer Iqbal takes to cycling!

Pranutan Bahl and Zaheer Iqbal’s debut film Notebook is all set to hit the theatres soon. And recently, the young duo was spotted in Juhu attending a special screening of their film that was organised only for the members of their family. For it, Pranutan – the granddaughter of late legendary actress Nutan – was accompanied by her father Mohnish Bahl, mother Ekta Sohini and her little sister Krishaa. Looking chic in a black crop top teamed with a pair of black jeans, the debutant actress was all smiles post the screening, along with her family. But what also caught our attention was her co-star Zaheer. The actor is often being talked about for his rather fit body and we discovered his secret there.

So, while the rest of the film fraternity, drive about town in swanky cars, Zaheer opted for a very different mode of transportation. He was seen cycling his way around the studio post the screening of his film and no points for guessing who his inspiration is! The newbie is not just being launched by Salman Khan, but is also being mentored by him in every way – including fitness. The debutant is clearly following in the footsteps of his mentor and has no wonder taken to cycling in a big way. We all know of Salman’s love for cycling. Even his stardom has never kept him off the cycle and the roads, as he has often been seen riding his cycle in and around Bandra.

Now, looks like Zaheer too has been bitten by the cycle-bug. Well, we must admit that at a time when newbies try hard to impress with their cars and heavy bikes, Zaheer’s been making a better impression with his cycling skills. Sporting a check shirt and jeans, topped with a cap, Zaheer looked casual yet smart. Directed by Nitin Kakkar Notebook is set against the backdrop of Kashmir and is a love story of two people who have never met. It is produced by none other than Salman Khan and is slated to release on March 29.
