Vivek Oberoi now joins this distinguished list of honorees. He portrayed IPS officer Vikram Bakshi in Rohit Shetty’s Indian Police Force, streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
In the series, Oberoi plays a patriotic and disciplined officer on a mission to prevent a major terrorist attack in Delhi. His nuanced performance and commitment to the role earned him widespread appreciation from both audiences and critics alike.
Throughout his career, Oberoi has showcased remarkable versatility — from his gritty breakout role in Company to the romantic charm of Saathiya, the intense drama of Omkara, and the larger-than-life appeal of Krrish 3. His foray into digital entertainment with Inside Edge and Indian Police Force further cemented his relevance among a new generation of viewers.
Looking ahead, the actor’s upcoming projects reflect both range and ambition — including Masti 4, marking his return to the popular comedy franchise; Spirit, Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s much-anticipated action drama; and Ramayan, a mythological epic expected to be among India’s most ambitious cinematic ventures.
As Vivek Oberoi prepares to receive the DPIFF honor, the recognition stands as a testament to his enduring adaptability and steady evolution through the dynamic landscape of Indian cinema.
