Be it the destructive streak of his character in Company, his boyish charm in Saathiya or the boiling rage in Yuva, the actor has approached each part with sincerity

Birthday Special: Revisiting some of Vivek Oberoi's most impressive performances

1. Company (2002)



For his first film, Vivek decided to work with a highly experimental director like Ram Gopal Varma. The actor made a sensational debut with RGV’s 'Company' that catapulted him to great success. Calling his debut performance “impressive” would be an understatement.

2. Yuva (2004)

His Arjun was a defined character in Mani Ratnam's 'Yuva', an aimless fresh out of college graduate who later transforms into a responsible and serving politician. Vivek’s astute vision caught the pulse of the character, and needless to say, it’s truly a remarkable performance. 

3. Omkara (2006)

He yet again exhibited his flair for offbeat choices when he worked with Vishal Bhardwaj in the latter’s Shakespearean crime drama 'Omkara'. He played Keshu Firangi, Omkara’s trusted aide and his character was central to the film as the rise of Keshav became the bone of contention and the bloodbath that followed.

4. Rakht Charitra (2010)

Vivek joined forces with RGV once again for the two part crime-drama, 'Rakht Charitra'. He nailed the character of a guy devastated by his family’s murder who turns to the world of crime. It won’t be wrong to say that RGV brings the best out in him.
