Navneet Malik becomes the first Indian actor to collaborate with Harley Davidson; Says, ‘When I think about how far I’ve come, it’s truly humbling’
Dreams do come true when you work hard for them, and Navneet Malik is living proof of that. The charming actor, who was last seen in Disney+Hotstar’s web series, “The Freelancer,” is now making history as the first Indian face for Harley Davidson. Yes, you read that right! Navneet is the first Indian actor to team up with Harley Davidson for a special advertising campaign.
When asked about this incredible opportunity, Navneet couldn’t contain his excitement. He said, “This is a milestone in my career, a dream that’s now a reality. When I think about how far I’ve come, it’s truly humbling. This moment feels so surreal; I keep pinching myself to make sure it’s real.”
Reflecting on his journey to this remarkable achievement, he described it as a mix of hard work, a sprinkle of luck, and a dash of destiny. “It all started right after my last film hit the screens. The director seemed to appreciate my profile, and perhaps my previous work with Royal Enfield caught their eye. When the casting director called and said, ‘You’re the one,’ I felt like I was in a dream. I consider myself incredibly fortunate for this opportunity, and I believe that my personality aligns perfectly with the Harley Davidson brand,” he added.
Becoming the face of an iconic brand like Harley Davidson is no small feat, and Navneet acknowledges that his personality played a significant role. He shares, “I think it’s a combination of several factors. Firstly, I had been doing shoots for Royal Enfield, which may have caught their attention. The director liked what I brought to the table. But I also believe it’s about how I’ve shaped my personality and my image. It’s not just about looks; it’s about how you carry yourself, how you handle your projects, and how you connect with people. It’s about the confidence you exude, and I think that’s what got me here.”
Hailing from Rohtak, Navneet Malik is known for his roles in Heropanti 2 (2022) and Love Hostel. In The Freelancer, he played the role of Mohsin Fazal opposite Kashmira Pardeshi aka Aliya Khan. The actor will also be seen playing the role of young Sanjay Dutt in the upcoming film The Virgin Tree.
