Grand Masti actor Vivek Oberoi is set to judge Zee TV’s India’s Best Draamebaaz for it’s third season according to a report in DNA. National Award-winning director Omung Kumar, who has films like Mary Kom and Sarbjit to his credit, too has been roped in to judge the show.

The Zee TV show which will soon be returning with its third edition will see Kumar co-judge the show with actors Sonali Bendre and Vivek Oberoi, read a statement. "I have followed the previous seasons of the show and have thoroughly enjoyed it. The show has been instrumental in shaping up lives and careers of many young acting prodigies and I am looking forward to mentoring the fresh league of acting enthusiasts. Besides being vulnerable and naughty, kids today are immensely talented. It's not easy to remember long dialogues, but they do it effortlessly," said Kumar.
