John Abraham got to drive the $3 million car, owned by the Dubai royal family, while shooting for a Bollywood film in Dubai.

One of the things that will capture your attention when you’re in Dubai are the various luxury cars that zoom on Dubai roads. You will see some of the most exotic supercars that you can find on the planet…some even abandoned in the desert.
