Vivek Oberoi is playing a different role at the ongoing IIFA event. First he tried to extend his hand of friendship towards Salman Khan, it’s different that Salman Khan ignored him and next he stunned one and all by speaking in favor of the Bachchan family who failed to turn up at the IIFA held in Colombo.

During a press conference, when Vivek Oberoi was asked to comment on Amitabh Bachchan’s absence from the event, he being the brand ambassador of IIFA, Vivek said, “You have to respect the fact that people have work for which they sometimes cannot turn up at events. It happens to each one of us. I know everyone wanted to see the Bachchan family in Colombo. They are being missed by the people of Sri Lanka as well as by everyone of us. Abhishek and Aishwarya have a film up for release and, trust me, there is a lot of work and stress during a release. So, give them a respite. I’m sure they would be missing being here too.”

Big B could not attend the event for prior assignments and Abhishek and Aishwarya failed to participate as the release of their highly anticipated film, ‘Raavan’ is round the corner and they are busy in promoting the film.
