😳 😆
It was one mistake that cost him his career and his social currency in Bollywood. And Vivek Oberoi, with a slew of big ticket projects finally in his kitty, is just about recovering from it.
When he took on Salman Khan at a press conference in 2003, talking about the alleged SMSes and the harassment over his former girlfriend, Vivek did not really know how it would haunt him for the rest of his life.
A lot of water has flowed under the bridge and the person, for whom Vivek had taken on the mighty Khan has moved on with her life. So has Vivek. Well almost.
Over the years the beleaguered actor has repeatedly tried to make peace with Salman. At public functions he had also approached him with folded hands - the very picture of regret and apology. Yet, Salman had not been moved.
And now Mirror has reliably learnt, that at a family dinner at the Oberois' home in Juhu, it was decided that there would be no more public apologies to Salman from Vivek. An eye-witness present at the dinner revealed to this diarist that the family has had its share of humiliation. "Vivek is not going to apologise to Salman only to be cold shouldered or humiliated by him," said the guest at the dinner.
When we tried contacting Vivek we were told by his friend, "This is true. Vivek will not apologise to Salman any more. He has done it many times in the past. Enough is enough. This far and no further."
His father, Suresh Oberoi heard us out and then said, "I do not wish to comment on it."
