MUMBAI: Vivek Oberoi's career has been a roller coaster. He has been a part of several controversies which has often proved as roadblocks in his way to better his craft. But looks like now, Vivek is back in the business and how!
The dapper man is currently seen in Inside Edge's second installment.
Vivek has been prey to many trolls and negative feedback, speaking about the same to Hindustan Times, Vivek said, “I feel that I hold the record of the most number of obituaries written for someone’s career. I’ve seen so many Fridays where in people have said, ‘Oh! This time he is over’. But I’m the comeback kid. I keep bouncing back. It has been a fun ride.” The actor further explains that he has never let people’s comments on his career affect him in any way.
He added, “I use this trick, this brilliant thing the universe has given me which is the power of choice. I choose to completely ignore the naysayers. Anything negative comes, I just throw it out.” And the reason why he remains unaffected by the negativity is because he’s not only an actor but also a businessman and philanthropist. Vivek Oberoi, who’s currently seen in 2nd instalment of web show Inside Edge, further stated that “I’m lucky that I branched out beyond films. I’m much fulfilled. It has made me economically empowered that I don’t have to work for money. I work for pleasure and for the joy of the art.”
Vivek Oberoi even spilled the beans on how he rejected a film, to make a debut with that was backed his father and actor Suresh Oberoi. He said, “The trend was that beta vilayat se padhayi karke ayega aur papa ek rocket ki tarah use launch karenge. And the trend was that you would make a complete showreel of a film in which you would show your dancing, riding horses, wearing designer clothes and romance girls. I had crises of conscience and opted out of the whole golden spoon being handed out to me.”
