Akanksha Puri is an Indian actress and model who is often noted for her grace and talent. She has now joined the elite group of movie stars who own the new Land Rover Defender SUV. Akanksha bought her Defender in Fuji White. It has been specced with the Adventure accessory pack which adds a Satin Silver-finished sidebox to the vehicle, and the Extended Black exterior pack ( which adds touches of Glossy and Narvik Black to the exterior. The grille bar, bonnet lettering, tailgate lettering, and the bonnet chequer finisher come finished in Glossy Black while the front and rear skid pans are finished in Narvik Black ).




She bought the SUV from a dealer called 'Car Wholesale Bazar'. This also happens to be their first new car delivery, as claimed in a video shared on Instagram.

It shows Akanksha taking delivery of her new SUV in a ceremony organized by the dealer. She arrives in her BMW and is welcomed warmly by the staff. After posing for a few pictures, Akanksha uncovers the Defender herself. She then celebrates the occasion by cutting a cake and sharing it with the people around.

Later in the video, we see a person from the dealer's end asking her about the purchase experience. Recalling her purchase journey made her emotional, as the Defender was on her wishlist for long and finally she seems to have achieved it. She seems to be quite excited about the Defender and considers it a major milestone.

Recalling her aspirations, she said, “There was a time when I would see this car on the road and whisper to myself, ‘One day, I will have this too.’ Not because of luck, not because of shortcuts, but because I will earn it with my hard work.”

She expressed how sitting behind the wheel of her own Defender now feels surreal and validates every struggle she has faced in her career. She has been doing exceptionally well in career and revenue generation since she started working together with Khesarilal Yadav- a popular Bhojpuri actor and singer.

From making a mark in television to diversifying into films and music videos, Akanksha Puri has built a name for herself through sheer perseverance. She gained widespread recognition for her portrayal of Goddess Parvati in Vighnaharta Ganesh and has even been a contestant in Big Boss. Her ability to work across multiple industries, including Tamil, Malayalam, and Bollywood, proves her versatility as an artist.

While this achievement is worth celebrating, Akanksha is not stopping anytime soon. She has several highly anticipated projects lined up, and her fans eagerly await her next big move. For her, this Defender is not just a car; it is a reminder of how far she has come and a motivation for how much more she is yet to accomplish.

About The Defender

Land Rover has three different body styles on offer on the Defender- 90 (short wheelbase), 110 (standard wheelbase) and 130 (long wheelbase)- of which the actress chose the 110.

Three engine options are available on the Defender 110- D350 diesel mild hybrid, P300 petrol and P450 petrol. Of these, the D350 and P300 are the top sellers. The exact powertrain details of Akanksha's SUV remain unknown. If you look closely, you will notice that it rides on a different set of wheels than what Land Rover has on offer in the official pool. The roof is finished in Black as well.

Recently we saw actress Sonam Bajwa add a Defender to her garage as well. The popularity of this SUV among artists and celebrities seems to have no intention to slow down...
