Note that AR Rahman even composed the soundtrack of the infotainment system on offer with the Mahindra XEV 9e as a part of a collaboration. No wonder he was so impressed by the vehicle that he ended up getting one for himself. Whether he paid for it or got it as a brand collaboration deal is unclear. Similarly, Kubbra Sait took to social media to demonstrate her new ride. In the images, she is evidently excited as she poses for a few photographs in front of the electric SUV. We even spotted famed director Anurag Kashyap with a Mahindra XEV 9e a few days ago. It is slowly becoming the darling of our beloved stars.
