Suresh Oberoi Recalls Efforts to Launch Son Vivek's Acting Career

Suresh expressed pride in Vivek's performance, especially in Company and Saathiya. Vivek, however, has stated he pursued roles independently under the name Vivek Anand, facing years of auditions and rejections before his breakthrough.
