Suresh Oberoi opens up on Vivek Oberoi-Aishwarya Rai's relationship amid her separation rumors with Abhishek Bachchan

Veteran actor Suresh Oberoi, who was last seen in the blockbuster Animal, spoke to Lehren Retro about his son Vivek Oberoi and his relationship with Aishwarya Rai back in 2003. The two were seen in the dud Kyun Ho Gaya Na that came out in 2004. He confessed he was unaware of the fact that the two were seeing each other and he got to know about it from director Ram Gopal Varma.

He revealed, “Most of the things I didn’t even know. Vivek never told me. Ramu (Ram Gopal Varma) told me. Before Ramu, somebody else told me. I had made him understand. Samjhaya tha mat karo (I had told him not to do).”

On Salman Khan

I was in relief in Vivek‘s case at that time and now also. Still, we all meet each other very nicely. Whenever Salman Khan meets me, he hides the cigarette and then talks to me as a part of respect. I always tell Vivek to touch Salim ji’s feet.  I also respect Salim Bhai. Things happened but my relationships are good enough.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan have been married for over 16 years but over the past few weeks, there were multiple reports and rumours about their separation. A report by Times Now says the actress has moved out of the Bachchan home.

A source told the publication, “It is for their child that Abhishek and Aishwarya are still together. They have been having problems for years. Now matters have come to a head.” The report added a divorce between the couple is unlikely to happen in near future.

Amid this, an interview of the actress has gone viral when she awarded the Padma Shri back in 2009 and while talking about the honour, she spoke about her family and Abhishek’s support.
