Mumbai, April 8 As he showcased his love for his custom-built bike, which he fondly calls “Kaal”, actor Prateik Smita Patil called it a symbol of his two-decade-long hustle laced with persistence, patience, and an unrelenting passion for motorcycles.

He added: “For me.. it represents the 2 decades of hustle!.. patience!.. & the unwavering hunger to own a piece of iron that defies the clock! & she truly is ONE FOR THE AGES!.. & FOR ERAS TO COME!”
The actor said that he spent over 1000 days “obsessing over every bolt!”
“Going through endless iterations!.. until she looked less like a machine!.. & more like a MONSTER! i wanted that BATPOD energy!.. - AGGRESSIVE!.. PROWLING!.. draped in the DEEPEST MATTE BLACK!”
Sharing his love for his bike, he added passionately: “& to give it that soul!.. - i integrated the legendary WILLIE G logo touches!.. - a nod to the heritage that started this fire within me!.. way back then! & after 20 years of dreaming!.. & 3 years of building!.. she finally looks PERFECT!”
