Vivek Oberoi, set to feature in Rohit Shetty’s ‘Indian Police Force’ alongside Sidharth Malhotra and Shilpa Shetty, reflects on his Bollywood journey that began with hits like ‘Company,’ ‘Saathiya,’ and ‘Yuva.’ Despite initial success, a downturn in his career led to stress and depression. Opening up about those challenging times in an interview with Mirchi Plus, Oberoi advises his younger self not to succumb to stress, emphasizing the transient nature of success. Recounting a period when people declared his career over, he acknowledges slipping into depression but now, with a healthier mental state, he advises others to chill, relax, and enjoy life, highlighting the impermanence of circumstances.
In the interview, Vivek Oberoi shares how he wasted considerable time under stress and pressure, revealing his struggles with mental health during that phase. Despite facing career setbacks, he emphasizes the importance of not dwelling on challenges. Oberoi now embraces a more relaxed perspective, expressing gratitude for the abundance of work opportunities he receives. With a newfound resilience, he notes that he often has to decline projects, not due to a lack of offers but rather to ensure the roles align with his artistic aspirations and provide meaningful challenges.
