Vivek Oberoi, who dated Aishwarya Rai briefly during the filming of Kyun Ho Gaya Na in 2014, revealed that he didn’t want to get married post break up until he met his now-wife Priyanka Alva.
“I didn’t want to get married, I was partying away. I was like no serious relationships. Its too much stress, too much complications. I had my fatherly emotion satisfied with my nieces and nephews. So, I was like, why to get married. My mom said, ‘meet this one girl, meet her and if you don’t like her, you say no, after that I will never tell you to meet anybody else but meet this one,’” Vivek Oberoi told Curly Tales.
“Priyanka was somewhere in New York, studying her MBA at that time, and they (relatives) set everything up. My mother saw this, and she has seen enough of me saying ‘please don’t talk about it’ in the past. She had tried this in the past… She is looking at this photo, and I come home and see the picture and say ‘she is quite pretty’. Next thing I know is that she is telling me ‘you have to meet her’,” Vivek recalled while talking to Humans of Bombay.
The duo tied the knot on 29 October 2010 and are blessed with two kids Vivaan Veer and Ameya Nirvana. Priyanka Alva is the daughter of former Karnataka minister late Jeevaraj Alva and reputed dancer Nandini.
