Actor
Vivek
Oberoi
is
set
to
introduce
physical
training
and
martial
arts
as
part
of
the
curriculum
of
his
school
in
Mathura
that
shelters
over
2,500
girls
and
gives
them
free
education.
"Vivek
believes
that
self-defence
is
an
important
subject
for
women
to
learn,
and
to
ensure
that
their
own
safety
isn't
compromised.
Vivek
also
wants
the
girls
to
become
masters
in
martial
arts
and
compete
in
national
and
international
level
games," said
a
source.
The
actor
has
previously
funded
for
facilities
such
as
computers
and
basic
needs
like
food
and
water.
"The
girls
would
be
introduced
to
advanced
techniques
too.
A
trainer
would
be
conducting
these
classes
and
will
also
include
basics
of
martial
arts
and
core
strength,"
the
source
added.
Vivek,
who
has
adopted
several
villages
for
development
and
is
one
of
the
spokespersons
for
the
World
Health
Organisation's
anti-tobacco
campaign,
was
also
awarded
for
his
work
in
2006
for
rebuilding
a
village
that
was
struck
by
a
tsunami.
