Stars and numerology: Are Amitabh Bachchan, Ranbir Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor superstitious?

Bollywood stars are known for their lavish lifestyles. Their love for luxury is not limited to their homes and foreign vacations. Many stars also have a fascination with cars and are particularly careful about their vehicle registration plates. While some believe in the power of numerology, others simply like their car’s number plate to reflect the special dates in their lives. Take a look at some Bollywood celebrities who have customised their vehicle registration plates.

Amitabh Bachchan

Amitabh Bachchan, one of the most popular actors in the Hindi film industry, has a penchant for cars as well as the number two. The 81-year-old actor’s birthday, which falls on October 11, sums up to two, making it an important number for him. This superstition or fancy extends beyond his life. The registration numbers of his cars either have the number 2 or add up to 2.  

Ranbir Kapoor

Ranbir Kapoor's obsession with number 8 is well-known. Not just his car, the number holds a special significance in his relationship with his wife Alia Bhatt. Why it is special for him is not known, but the couple has been vocal about the importance the number holds in their lives. Therefore, the Animal actor, who is a car enthusiast, makes sure the registration plates reflect the number in some manner. All his vehicles have the number 8 adorned on the license plate.

Shahid Kapoor

Another actor who believes his birthdate to be a lucky number for him is Kabir Singh star Shahid Kapoor. Born on February 25, the actor’s car registrations either contain the two digits or their sum total - the number 7. Not just his cars, but his Harley Davidson bike also reflects the number on its plate.

Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan

Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan also adhere to their lucky numbers when choosing registration plates for their cars. Kareena considers 3 to be lucky for her as it is the sum total of her birthday date, September 21. Thus, 3 finds a place on her car's number plate. On the other hand, her husband Saif Ali Khan, born on the 16th, prefers 7 since the figures add up to this number.

Riteish Deshmukh

Riteish Deshmukh's prefers 1. The actor is the proud owner of several cars and automobiles which feature 1 on their registration plates. Not just his car, his vanity van also carries ‘R-1’. The R on the plate is reported to stand for his name. However, the Ved actor has not talked about it anywhere.
