When I am riding my bike, everything feels alive: Apurva Agnihotri

From a tentative throttle as a child in Kanpur to conquering some of India’s toughest mountain routes, Apurva Agnihotri ’s relationship with motorcycles is rooted in instinct, emotion and a sense of freedom. The Anupamaa actor traces it all back to a childhood moment. “I was six years old when my cousin made me sit on his bike. I could only balance and didn’t know gears. He simply said, ‘Just accelerate’. The moment I did that, I knew this is something I have to latch on to for life.”
