Veteran actor Suresh Oberoi, who was recently seen in the blockbuster film Animal, has now opened up about how he didn’t know anything about son Vivek Oberoi’s relationships and revealed that director Ram Gopal Varma told him about Vivek and Aishwarya Rai. The actor also revealed how Salman Khan is very respectful towards him.
In an interview with Lehren, Suresh said, “Most of the things I didn’t even know. Vivek never told me. Ramu (Ram Gopal Varma) told me. Before Ramu, somebody else told me. I had made him understand. Samjhaya tha mat karo (I had told him not to do).”
When asked about his dynamics with Amitabh Bachchan, Suresh Oberoi said, “I was never a friend of his. I was his co-star. We had a relationship industry wise. My friendship was with Danny Mukul. Yes, Mr Bachchan invited me for his birthday but it was fine. And he doesn’t let people know about most of the things. But whenever we meet, we are really nice to each other.”
The actor then opened up about his relationship with Salman Khan and Salim Khan. He said, “I was in relief in Vivek‘s case at that time and now also. Still we all meet each other very nicely. Whenever Salman Khan meets me, he hides the cigarette and then talks to me as a part of respect. I always tell Vivek to touch Salim ji’s feet. I also respect Salim Bhai. Things happened but my relationships are good enough.”
Vivek Oberoi dated Aishwarya Rai before they parted ways in 2003. The actor had previously said that Aishwarya’s former boyfriend Salman had threatened him for dating her.
Helmed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, Animal was released in theatres on December 1. The film stars Ranbir Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Anil Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna in pivotal roles.
