But that is exactly what happened when two Rolls-Royce cars once owned by the Bollywood superstars landed in trouble — not for speeding, but for skipping state road person behind the wheel these days is not a film star, but Bengaluru-based businessman and politician Yusuf Sharif, better known as 'KGF Babu'. He earned the nickname thanks to his roots in Kolar Gold Fields, the mining town made famous by the Kannada film 'KGF'.advertisementSharif is now facing fines totalling Rs 38.26 lakh for driving the luxury vehicles — a Rolls-Royce Phantom once owned by Bachchan and a Rolls-Royce Ghost previously belonging to Khan — without paying the local road tax in Karnataka.

Karnataka law requires vehicles used in the state for more than a year to be re-registered locally and taxed accordingly.

The vehicles remain registered under the actors' names, as Sharif never formally transferred them to his own. Officials confirmed that both vehicles are being used regularly but remain, on paper, Bollywood who once made a living selling scrap, later moved into real estate and politics. In 2021, he contested the Karnataka Legislative Council elections from the Bangalore Urban local authorities' constituency, declaring family assets worth over Rs 1,744 RTO had previously flagged the Phantom in 2021 over tax issues but did not take action since it had not completed a year in the state. - Ends IN THIS STORY#Karnataka#Bengaluru
