On Tuesday, Pooja Bhatt became the proud owner of a new car, one that she jokes is much like her—“intense and evolved.” There’s more to her bright green Mini Cooper than just style. With the all-electric car, Bhatt has made the environmentally conscious choice of joining the electric vehicle (EV) revolution. “A lot of people dissuaded me from getting an electric vehicle, saying that one should wait for a couple more years before it becomes a norm. But I went ahead because electric vehicles contribute to a greener future by producing zero emissions. They are easier to maintain than petrol vehicles, and the small size ensures I navigate the traffic snarls in Mumbai,” says the actor-producer.
