Javed started doing stunts on bikes. He used to repair the bikes coming to his garage for free and give them a trial. If the bike’s parts used to get damaged while doing stunts, he used to get them repaired from his own pocket.
Works in Akshay Kumar’s team
By the year 2007, Javed had learned to do stunts and bought a Pulsar 220cc bike. After this, he participated in the first stunt show MTV Pulsar Stunt Mania reality show. But Javed was shown the way out in the audition. Javed got a chance in the second stunt reality show. Javed surprised everyone by doing his favorite stoppie stunt.

Javed completed the stunt but could not put the right key in the last round and on top of that Akshay Kumar was shouting at Javed to change the key. In the end, Javed lost. Javed may have lost but Akshay Kumar recognized his talent. Akshay Kumar gifted Javed a Pulsar 220 bike and also included Javed in his team. Today Javed works in Akshay Kumar’s team.
I do not feel afraid of death
Javed says that he is not afraid of death. He is a Muslim and fears only Allah. There were some moments in Javed’s life which completely shattered him. In the year 2007, Javed’s elder brother died in a road accident while racing. During his brother’s accident, Javed prayed to God that if his brother’s life is saved, he will never touch a bike and if it does not happen, he will never leave the bike. But perhaps God did not want this. Javed’s elder brother died in a road accident and Javed created a stir in the world of stunts.

Everyone had lost hope and Javed’s family had even signed the post-mortem form, but suddenly Javed breathed and came out of the coma defeating death.
