“I’ve been at the edge of darkest of darknesses; I’ve contemplated doing something Sushant Singh did. It happens when everything in your personal and professional life goes wrong, all at once. But I was fortunate that I was surrounded by people who loved me, who became my pillars and who reminded me, ‘The world can take away my power, but not my strength!’”

Vivek Oberoi is a name synonymous with versatility and charisma in the Indian film industry. Although Vivek was born in the glitz and glamour of Bollywood – as Suresh Oberoi’s son, he chose to pave his own path and strived to make his mark in the industry.

In this episode, we peel back the layers of Vivek's journey – from the story of his debut in "Company" to the unexpected stardom that came his way, from Bollywood friendships to his heartwarming love story, and from worst of adversities to how he found balance in his life.

Join us as we explore the journey of a man who has battled adversities, found love in unexpected places, and achieved success, on his own terms.

We talked about:

. Childhood days
. His father’s reaction to his decision of becoming an actor
. The story of how he landed ‘Company’
. Behind the scenes of ‘Saathiya’
. Experience working with Rani Mukherji
. The early days of success
. Dealing with the negativity and criticism
. Mental health
. Spiritual practices he does to stay centered

About Humans of Bombay –
Humans of Bombay is a movement that started 10 years ago. We believe that every person has a story to tell and we want to help them tell these stories. In these years we’ve published stories across genres – stories of love, hope, faith and courage. And through our storytelling, we’ve built an engaged community of over 5M!

Our idea is simple – to strike a chord with our community and catalogue the beat of humanity, one story at a time.
