Vivek Anand Oberoi may have donned the uniform of a cop for cinema on multiple occasions over his 20-year career. However, he has noticed a difference in the way both he and filmmakers perceive the role. “I’ve observed police officers and realised that while they are heroes, they are also human beings with feelings and needs, and ones who can also feel weak, at times. As years have passed, I have noticed that the way cop-roles are written, has dramatically changed. Narratives have come closer to reality,” says the actor, who plays the part in the upcoming web-series, Dharavi Bank.
As a righteous police officer in Samit Kakkad’s show, he will lock horns with Suniel Shetty’s character. Oberoi sought help from his friends in the police force to prep for the part. “They’ve been a pillar of strength and have helped me prepare for films like Shootout at Lokhandwala and Company. When I am set to play one of them on screen, I know I have to do it responsibly. My endeavour is to bring out the person behind the profession.”
While the uniform, he says, plays a crucial role in enabling an actor to become the part, he had to be mindful of staying in character when he wasn’t wearing one. “Even if you don’t wear the uniform, you have to remember that the guy you’re playing is a cop. That can make things tougher,” he signs off.
