Vivek Oberoi and Salman Khan's feud was talk of the town in 2003. They clashed over actor Aishwarya Rai, who was then reportedly dating Vivek and had broken up with Salman before that. Following a press conference, in which Vivek spoke of how Salman had threatened him, he became “the guy nobody was supposed to work with”. In an interview to Mumbai Mirror,Vivek said"When my personal life got messed up, I couldn’t keep my eye on the ball. Even if I gave a hit, work wouldn’t follow. Shootout at Lokhandwala became a huge hit, but I sat at home for a year after that.”
"It was like a fatwa was issued against me from the powers that be.”
In the year 2005, Vivek claimed that Salman reportedly dialled his number 41 times and threatened to end his life. He said, “To what extent Salman blacklisted him [in] the industry is a matter of conjecture. It’s easy to assume that he used his clout to ask people to exclude Vivek from projects. But then, Salman didn’t get along with Ranbir Kapoor and John Abraham either, and they’ve both got work through the years.”
Uh Oh!
