Vivek won’t Apologise to Salman Khan

Bollywood Actor Vivek Oberoi’s one silly mistake not only jeopardized his career but also took away the girl of his dreams while earning him the wrath of one of the most formidable Khans of Bollywood. Over the years, Vivek repeatedly apologized to Salman at various public functions and award nights but to no avail. As of now, Vivek’s career is getting back on track as the actor has couple of plum projects in his kitty. Buzz has it that Vivek has made his mind that he will not apologies to Salman anymore. Vivek hosted a press conference in 2003 where he accused Salman Khan of alleged messages and harassment over his then girlfriend, Aishwarya Rai.

Vivek Oberoi will not apologies to Salman anymore. He has done it many times in the past. Enough is enough. This far and no further,” echoed Vivek’s close friend. When contacted, Vivek

Rakht Charitra 2 - Movie Review

RAKHT CHARITRA 2 A; DRAMA/ACTION Dir: Ram Gopal Varma Cast: Vivek Oberoi, Suriya, Shatrughan Sinha, Priyamani, Zarina Wahab, Radhika Apte Movie:** RAKHT CHARITRA 2 Movie ABOUT: Anandpur has several tales written in blood, croaks the narrator. And Rakht Charitra 2 never let up on that premise. The violent bloodletting continues with an unabashed fervor. While Pratap Ravi (Oberoi) avenged the deaths of his father and brother in Part 1, it's Surya's (Suriya) turn to hack and bleed his way through to Pratap in this installment. WHAT'S HOT: This is undoubtedly Suriya's film. Left with little to lose, his character, a one-time pacifist, goes for the kill from the very beginning. His entry is met with catcalls and whistles at the theater I watched the film in. There is no denying that this actor has a powerful charismatic screen presence and great looks to go with it. Watch out for his emotional scenes and the action ones, he excels in those. Vivek Oberoi is benched fo

Prince - It's Showtime

Prince - It's Showtime Bollywood Actor Vivek Oberoi makes a come back with this Bombshell of an Action Entertainer by Kookie Gulati. ' Prince ', written by Shiraz Ahmed of ‘Race’ fame, has every ingredient, other than a convincing script, that would be needed to make a blockbuster. The film seems to be inspired by 'Ghajini' and several Hollywood flicks that deal with the memory loss of the protagonist. The filmmakers take the story from there and has stuffed the film with twists and turns and more of technology. Many futuristic concepts are employed, like erasing the memory of an individual and later inserting it back with a computer chip. At times, our hero even looks a superhero in the mould of Spiderman. If he is that superhuman, then why should he go through a series of "small" challenges to secure his end, one may be complled to think. Vivek Oberoi plays the title role, that of a savvy thief. He wakes up, after committing a mega bank robbery,

Salman Khan and Vivek Oberoi upset Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

Bollywood Actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has moved on in life. She wonders why Salman Khan and Vivek cannot! Aishwarya Rai Bachchan has never spoken a word on her by now infamous affairs with Salman Khan and Vivek Oberoi. She has maintained a dignified silence on her personal life. Her former boyfriends have left no stone unturned to make digs at her. Recently, on a talk show, Vivek used phrases like ‘Rai’ (which also means opinion) and ‘plastic heart and plastic smiles’. He was obviously referring to Aishwarya Rai Bachchan who has been called ‘plastic’ in the past. Salman has also spoken about her in press interviews and on shows. A source said, ‘All this has upset Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who hasn’t said a word on them and she wishes they would keep quiet about the whole thing too. It makes one wonder if the two don’t have anything happening in their own lives that they have to cash in on their former relationship with her. Why can’t they get a life and behave like gentlemen?’ He furt

Sanjay Leela Bhansali keeps Vivek Oberoi waiting… and waiting

It took him long to return actor’s friendly overture Sanjay Leela Bhansali made Vivek Oberoi wait for a good three hours before coming out of his shoot to meet the actor. Vivek Oberoi was shooting at one location at Mehboob Studios for Karan Johar’s “Qurbaan”. At the same studio, Sanjay Leela Bhansali was shooting for “Guzaarish” with Hrithik Roshan. Vivek Oberoi thought that he would meet both of them before leaving. Hrithik is an old friend of Vivek Oberoi’s and has been with him through his good and bad times. Vivek met Hrithik in his vanity van and then sent a message through a spot boy that he would like to meet Bhansali. The filmmaker is apparently very close to both of Vivek Oberoi’s enemies, Salman and Aishwarya, hence he has never been very warm with Vivek Oberoi. In the past too, SLB had taken Vivek’s name as the most overrated actor on “Koffee with Karan”. Later Vivek had retorted by saying that he loves Yash Raj’s movies and not any “black” and white films. But over the ye

However, he was a little apprehensive not knowing if former girlfriend Aishwarya was around or not. Once he ensured that Ash was nowhere around her went over and bonded with his childhood pal.

Saif ali Khan and Vivek land in legal trouble in New York

Saif Ali Khan and Vivek Oberoi ran into trouble with some policemen while shooting for Rensil D'Silva's film Qurbaan in New York. Both the actors were almost arrested while shooting for the film. A source said, "Vivek and Saif were shooting in a hilly region in New York. It was a scene where both the actors had to drive a car and the camera was placed quite far, as it was a long shot. The actors kept driving for a long time as they were required to give various takes, because the scene was being shot from several angles. However, the locals, who had no clue that a film shoot was on, started getting suspicious when they saw the two Indians driving around aimlessly. They wasted no time in calling the cops, who immediately came and started questioning Vivek and Saif.” Vivek and Saif told the policemen that they were actors from India and were shooting for a film. However, the cops refused to believe them. Much to the frustration of the two actors, the cops flatly refused to b

"Every time we go out for dinner, she would shake her head and tell me - 'find a nice girl and settle down' and I would hide behind Saif to dodge the bullet. We had some great laughs," he said. Vivek's personal life has always been in the spotlight - from the time his engagement to long-standing girlfriend Gurpreet Gill broke off to the short but much-hyped relationship with former beauty queen Aishwarya Rai. But now the actor is single. He reasons his stag status by saying: "I'm single because I am waiting to find the girl who wil
