Vivek Oberoi does a recap of his life and career on his 49th birthday on September 3, and tells „I have a beautiful wife, lovely children and the power to help those who are in need.“

Vivek, you are an underrated actor and a successful entrepreneur known for your charitable causes.

I don‘t like to talk about what I do with my money.

But yes, I believe that if God has given you wealth, it means He wants you to make good use of it.

I feel honoured that I‘ve the opportunity to give back to people some of what they‘ve given me.

You mean the love you got as an actor?

And the love I get now in my real-life roles beyond an actor.

I truly feel blessed. I have a beautiful wife, lovely children and the power to help those who are in need.

You‘ve been working relentlesslyto make this a better world for women and children.

Exploitation of any kind is a cancer to society.

People with power should use it to empower rather than exploit.

Artistic fraternities, just like any other institution, should have checks and balances.

I have been dedicated to the cause of women and girl child empowerment for 15 years.
