Vivek Oberoi: Man of the moment

When Vivek Oberoi [ Images ] entered the industry, there wasn't much hype surrounding him. All he needed to do was make an impressive debut in Ram Gopal Varma's [ Images ] Company. And Suresh Oberoi's son was the most talked about newcomer.

After the not-so-racy Road, Vivek struck once again with Shaad Ali's Saathiya.

Confident screen presence and oodles of talent, Vivek looked unstoppable. But controversy took over with the Salman Khan [ Images ] threatening calls episode. Vivek's strategy of holding a press conference wasn't received too well by the industry. He made more news for his liaison with Aishwarya Rai [ Images ] instead of his work. Next, in an unfortunate accident on the sets of Mani Ratnam's Yuva [ Images ], Vivek fractured his leg and was indisposed for a while.

But now Vivek is back, despite yet another minor fracture in his left hand, with two promising films -- Yuva and Indra Kumar's Masti.

Although both the films are three-hero projects (Yuva has Ajay Devgan [ Images ] and Abhishek Bachchan [ Images ]. Masti costars Aftab Shivdasani [ Images ] and Ritesh Deshmukh [ Images ]), you can count on Oberoi to make his presence felt.

Besides these two movies, the actor is also working on Subhash Ghai's [ Images ] Kisna: A Soldier of Humanity (Isha Sharvani [ Images ]) and Sameer Karnik's Kyun...! Ho Gaya Na (Amitabh Bachchan [ Images ], Rai).
