Vivek Anand Oberoi is one actor who has always believed in playing his parts with sincerity. There’s a certain foresight the actor has which makes him impressive in his craft. His ability to subvert the traits of his characters to move on to other parts further cements this belief. 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 by injecting a heady mix of internal conflicts to his characters.
As the actor celebrates his birthday today, let’s look at some of his films that prove his finesse.

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.
