Last
year,
the
dashing
Vivek
Oberoi
added
a
new
dimension
to
his
career
when
he
made
his
Kollywood
debut
with
the
much-hyped
Vivegam
and
delivered
a
solid
performance.
In
the
spy-thriller,
he
acted
alongside
'Thala'
Ajith
Kumar
and
managed
to
hold
his
own.
To
make
things
even
sweeter,
Vivegam
did
well
at
the
box
office
and
received
rave
reviews.
Now,
here
is
some
good
news
for
those
who
are
keen
on
seeing
Vivek
in
South
films
again.
The
industry
buzz
is
that
Vivek
has
become
the
highest
paid
and
most
sought-after
Bollywod
star
in
the
South
film
fraternity.
Commenting
on
this,
a
trade
expert
said
that
the
Rakhta
Charithra
actor's
impressive
performance
in
Vivegam
is
the
main
reason
for
him
being
in
high
demand
in
the
South.
"Vivek
had
as
much
screen
time
as
Ajit
Kumar
in
Vivegam
and
held
his
own
despite
being
entirely
new
to
the
industry.
He
became
a
subject
of
heated
discussion
ever
since
the
film
went
on
to
become
a
mega
blockbuster
and
was
immediately
flooded
with
offers.
He
is
now
part
of
the
most
prominent
projects
,
alongside
the
biggest
superstars
in
the
Malayalam,
Kannada
and
Telugu
film
industry
and
is
also
rumored
to
be
the
highest
paid
Hindi
actor
down
South," added
the
trade
expert.
On
a
related
note,
Vivek
will
soon
be
seen
in
Ram
Charan's
film
with
film-maker
Boyapati
Srinu.
He
also
has
Rustum
and
Lucifer
in
his
kitty.
Rustum
is
the
first
Kannada
film
of
his
career.
On
the
other
hand,
Lucifier
is
a
Prithviraj
directorial
and
will
have
him
act
alongside
the
'Complete
Actor' Mohanlal.
It
is
arguably
one
of
the
biggest
Malayalam
films
in
the
recent
times.
