Emraan Hashmi describes how he chose to sign a film early in his career to fund a dream car. In past comments cited by NDTV, he says he took a project after receiving what he called his first “big” pay cheque, using the earnings to buy the vehicle he wanted.
Hashmi also links the decision to personal motivation, saying he wanted to impress his then girlfriend, now wife, Parveen. NDTV reports that he frames the moment as a turning point tied to both financial progress and romantic life.
The two references provided repeat the same core account, without additional differing details or corroboration from other outlets. Both versions focus on Hashmi’s recollection of signing a film and the purpose it served—purchasing his dream car at that time—along with his explanation that impressing Parveen was part of the reason.
