Actor Vivek Oberoi has also been making an impressive mark in the business arena. Last year, the actor made headlines for his Rs 1200 crore net worth, and he also ventured into the business of lab-grown diamonds, which was successfully launched on a bigger scale. In an earlier interview with SCREEN, Vivek had shared how doing business was always his plan B given the uncertainty in the acting profession. Today, Vivek Oberoi runs many successful businesses, and recently, his partner from Soliatrio spoke about the actor’s business stance.
Vivek’s partner, Ricky Vasandani, revealed how he met the actor and also shared the amazing business acumen Vivek has. He said, “My PR team had told me that Vivek was coming to Pune, I sponsored the event to sit next to him, and it was not for business. But because I liked his films, I wore my best jacket, wore my jewellery, and he looked at me and complimented me. He later understood from me what lab-grown diamonds were, and asked me to take down his number, and then we met a couple of times. His mentorship, business analysis, and way of growing a company are very impressive. He is a walking, talking businessman. When he first met, he said ROTI (Return On Time Investment) is the most important thing.”

Ricky further said on Siddharth Kanan’s Youtube channel, “Vivek is a fantastic actor, but when it comes to business, he is next level. Vivek is there in every detail of what is going to happen, he knows how to analyze and prioritize. He has awesome networking skills. We don’t believe in burning money.”

Earlier, talking to SCREEN about venturing into business, the actor had shared, “Business was always a Plan B, and I decided cinema would be my passion. My livelihood should be my business, which helped me earn my independence and get out of that whole trap of lobbies, or having to sell your soul or suck up to somebody that is no great way to live at least for me. Some people make a living out of it, but for me, that’s not the case.”
On the film front, Vivek is shooting for Masti 4, the film is reported to release this year.
