IIFA 2024: Vivek Oberoi Takes Indirect Dig At Salman As He Praises SRK: 'Many People Have Power..'

Vivek Oberoi faced the brunt of his immature act when, out of love, he called the press and gave a statement against Salman Khan. Time and again, Vivek shared that it was a childish act, which he did after getting influenced, but Salman Khan never forgave him. In fact, when he apologised to the superstar in 2009 during an award show, he paid no heed. It seems like Vivek has not forgotten Salman's rudeness, and he took an indirect dig at him by praising Shah Rukh Khan during IIFA 2024.

Vivek Oberoi took a silent dig at Salman Khan

Vivek Oberoi received an award during the recently held IIFA 2024 awards. After receiving the award and thanking, Vivek heaped praises on Shah Rukh. He called him man of hearts as he uses his fame and power to empower others. Shah Rukh was left blushing, and while Vivek didn't take any names, he indirectly reflected on how Salman never used his power and fame to lift up others but brought them down. Vivek said:
