Varun says that he used to take Ileana D'Cruz and Nargis Fakhri on his bike for long rides. "But it took a lot of convincing from me to get Ekta on the back seat. Believe me, it is the first time that I have had to put in so much effort to convince a girl," he says.

Interestingly, as a part of the promotional campaign today, there will be a troupe of biker girls following Varun in Mumbai. At various pit-stops, he will give one lucky female fan a chance to ride with him. And Ekta will be the final girl on his bike.
