The actor mentioned that he loves driving, and whenever he gets a chance, he takes out his car and drives. “And I still do that, every time I get a chance to drive, I drive. There, here, everywhere. Whenever I get the chance, I take the wheel. It’s something I still enjoy a lot. That’s my time for myself. And it’s really good for thinking while driving,” the actor highlighted.
