Famed music composer Anu Malik, known for his compositions in Indian movies like Baazigar, Main Hoon Na, Ishq, Border, and more, has brought home the Range Rover Sport luxury SUV. The 63-year-old was recently spotted at the dealership in Mumbai taking delivery of his new prized possession. The Range Rover Sport is the standard wheelbase version based on the Range Rover and is now locally assembled by JLR in India priced at ₹1.40 crore (ex-showroom).
Range Rover Sport Specifications
While it’s unclear which variant Anu Malik opted for, his Range Rover Sport is finished in a fantastic shade of Eiger Grey. Power on the SUV comes from the 3.0-litre petrol and diesel engines with mild-hybrid technology. The petrol develops 394 bhp, while the diesel belts out 346 bhp. The top-spec Range Rover Sport has a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 engine, 516 bhp and 750 Nm. That said, the latter arrives in India as a Completely Built Unit (CBU).

Meanwhile, the Range Rover Dynamic SE variant is now locally assembled in India, which is why it is much more accessible than before. The SUV packs lesser space in the second row over the long-wheelbase version, but can be a driver’s delight as well. The cabin is loaded with features right from the digital instrument console, the 13.1-inch curved touchscreen Infotainment system with PiviPro OS, a head-up display, rear entertainment screens, wireless charging and more.
The Range Rover Sport further packs premium leather upholstery, a Meridian surround sound system, all-wheel steering, heated and cooled front seats with massage function and more. The SUV further packs an electronic air suspension, and active differential with torque vectoring.
