Actor Vivek Oberoi has talked about his struggles, his values and his views on what it means to succeed and fail in Bollywood. Vivek, who made his debut in 2002 with Ram Gopal Varma’s ‘Company’, became an instant hit with his powerful performances in films such as ‘Saathiya’, ‘Yuva’, ‘Shootout at Lokhandwala’, ‘Omkara’ and ‘Rakht Charitra’ among many others.

“He had fixed up a producer and there was a script waiting and everything. And I said no,...

“There was a conversation a while ago, I think it was when Coldplay was doing it, of me going on to play ‘Thinking Out Loud’,” he said.
