Vivek Oberoi gets nostalgic
“Diwali has always been a very special festival for me,” Vivek shared warmly. “As a child, I I remember eagerly waiting to steal the sweets my mother made in the kitchen before the guests arrived. Those little moments, the laughter, the chaos, have stayed with me through the years.”
Reflecting on how his perspective has evolved, he added, “As I’ve grown older, the meaning of Diwali has deepened. Now, Diwali for me is more than a festival. It’s a time for giving back, gratitude, and spreading light in someone else’s life in whatever way I can.”
When Vivek Oberoi shared his meaning of Diwali
When asked about his most difficult Diwali, the actor smiled and said, “I have never really had a ‘worst’ Diwali moment; I truly believe there’s no such thing. Even in the quietest or most challenging years, Diwali has a way of reminding you that darkness never lasts, that the light always returns. And that’s what this festival is all about: hope, renewal, and the promise of brighter days ahead.”With ‘Masti 4’ releasing on November 21, 2025, the cast will soon start with the promotions.
