New Delhi, Sep 8 (IANS) Actress Priyanka Chopra had a ride on the fast lane she won’t easily forget while hosting Colors’ adventure reality show ‘Fear Factor – Khatron Ke Khiladi’, courtesy a Formula 2 racer.
Formula 2 racer Arman Ibrahim, one of the contestants on the show, had an edge over others to impress the former Miss World during a stunt shot on a race course in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The 21-year-old decided to show off his skills behind the wheel and took daredevil Priyanka for a drive on the racing track.
‘Taking Priyanka for a drive was an absolutely awesome experience. The race track is often the loneliest place – just you and your car. But having such a gorgeous woman by your side and a great set of wheels at the track was exciting,’ Armaan said in a statement.
‘We had fun and I’m happy Priyanka enjoyed the ride. I’ve invited her to one of my races, so we can give this another go sometime soon,’ he added.
