Iqbal Khan's hot new wheels

Mohammed Iqbal Khan

Fifteen days ago, Mohammed Iqbal Khan became a proud owner a grey Hyundai Accent. He's got himself vanity plates but they don't spell ONE. The car's registration number is 786. "It's obvious why I wanted that number from my name," grinned Angad of Kaisa Ye Pyar Hai.

Khan who picked up the car two weeks ago says that he wanted a medium-size car. "That's the reason why I didn't go for the huge ones which have become so common."

First drive

"Well technically, I had the first drive alone. As soon as I got possession, I drove to my shoot. On the same evening, I picked up Sneha (girlfriend) and we went to town for a long drive, followed by a dinner at President Hotel."

Number chahiye

The actor is thrilled that he got the number he desired. "It's not a big deal to get the number of your choice if you follow the legal procedure of paying a little extra. But when you get exactly what you want, to mazaa hi kuch aur hota hai."

Khan is in awe of the number 786. "I used to write it on top of my examination sheets. I think it has been a very lucky number for me. I still remember that I was not good in Mathematics, and wanting to pass time till my turn came."

No tints

Earlier, Khan used to commute by buses and rickshaws. "I will miss the way the public treated me when I travelled from home to shoot, to and fro. Hence I don't have tinted glass in my new grey."

What does 786 signify?

According to a website, "786 is the total value of the letters of Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim. In Arabic there are two methods of arranging letters — Alphabetical method and Abjad method (ordinal).

If the numeric values of all the letters of Bismillah are taken by the Abjad order, the total will be 786. In the Indian subcontinent the Abjad numerals became quite popular.

Some people, mostly in India and Pakistan, use 786 as a substitute for Bismillah. They write this number to avoid writing the name of Allah or the Qur'anic ayah on ordinary papers."
