Is Vivek Bollywood's new age Gabbar Singh?

Actor Vivek Oberoi, who plays a villain in "Krrish 3", says his character could be described as "Gabbar Singh of our times".

"I am really very, very excited about 'Krrish 3'. It's a really cool, bad character and it's a role of a lifetime. It's like a Gabbar Singh of our times, so I am very excited," the 36-year-old said here during the first anniversary celebration of Acme Mall Store Sunday.

Being directed by Rakesh Roshan, "Krrish 3" is a sequel to the 2006-superhero flick "Krrish" featuring Hrithik Roshan in the lead.

Meanwhile, Vivek's romantic-comedy "Kismet, Love, Paisa, Dilli" is set to hit screens Friday.

He is also doing "Zilla Ghaziabad", and romantic comedy "Jayanta Bhai Ki Luv Story."

Happy doing different kinds of films, Vivek said: "It's good, one should do different kinds of films...It's a colourful year, a rainbow year where I am doing all kinds of films. I am very, very excited about it."
