Smoking not allowed on my sets: Vivek Oberoi

Vivek Oberoi not just stays clear of tobacco, he also avoids passive smoking and says that once someone smokes at the movie sets, he leaves that place.

“There is really no smoking allowed on my sets. If anyone smokes, I always leave the set and go out,” Vivek told reporters Friday at an event to celebrate the sector No Tobacco Day, that's on May 31. It was organised by Cancer Patients Aid Association (CPAA).

When reporters asked him what does he do when his co-stars smoke, he said that he doesn’t enter their van.

The 35-year-old, who has a decade-long association with the CPAA, said: “I always attempt to help whatever good organisation, that is serving the reason for humanity selflessly. I'VE BEEN with CPAA for 10 years now.”

Vivek, known for films like “Company”, “Saathiya” and “Yuva”, says his mother is his inspiration.

“She is my hero. She have been serving cancer patients since such a lot of years now. She goes to hospitals, makes homemade food for the patients and talks to them,” he said. – IANS
