Zia Ghaziabad is my comeback: Vivek
The actor says he is happy with the response to his latest film
Vivek Oberoi is happy with the response to his latest release “Zila Ghaziabad” and says the film has been a “big comeback” for him.
“People are telling me that Vivek Oberoi of ‘Company’ has come back with ‘Zila Ghaziabad’. It has been a big comeback for me,” the 36-year-old said.
“I am thankful to God for the kind of response the film is getting. My producer and the distributors were telling me that it has got a historic opening in the north [India], Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, especially,” Vivek said.
“The response from single screen theatres is terrific. It is running houseful here [Mumbai] at Gaiety theatre since [Friday] morning,” he added.
Vivek is not worried if the movie makes it to the Rs1 billion or not.
“I don’t believe in all this. I believe that a film should be good and people should remember it. Be it ‘Company’, ‘Saathiya’ or ‘Shootout at Lokhandwala’, films that people still remember me for, no one asks me how much money did they earn,” he said.
“This is the producer and the distributor’s concern. Our work is to give a good film that even after 10 years, people appreciate you,” Vivek said.
Directed by Anand Kumar, “Zila Ghaziabad” also stars Sanjay Dutt, Paresh Rawal, Ravi Kishen and Arshad Warsi.
