Oberoi went on to study at Mayo College, Ajmer and Mithibai College, Mumbai.At an actors’ workshop in London, he was spotted by the director of New York University who took Vivek to New York, where he completed his master’s degree in film acting. Oberoi’s full first name, Vivekanand,is based on that of the Hindu monk Swami Vivekananda; his father and grandfathers were followers of the monk.He says he dropped Anand when he joined movies out of respect for Vivekananda, as he considered it would be embarrassing romancing and dancing on screen with the name of the monk.He credits Kareena Kapoor as his inspiration for adopting a vegetarian diet.

In 2019, Oberoi made his Malayalam debut with Mohanlal in Prithviraj Sukumaran’s directorial debut, Lucifer, as the main antagonist, Bobby, in which his performance as a villain was well received by critics and the audience.Times of India gave the film 3.5 out of 5 writing “Lucifer is a ‘mass entertainer’ that is sure to please the fans and has enough going for to make it an engaging thriller as well. And apart from the mandatory Stan Lee, correction, Antony Perumbavoor cameo, watch out for Stephen’s second avatar in the film.”He has featured as a talent judge for three seasons of the reality show India’s Best Dramebaaz. He portrayed the role of India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi in PM Narendra Modi.

The film was universally panned by critics, who termed it a hagiography and criticized Oberoi’s performance.Renuka Vyavahare of The Times of India gave the film two and a half stars out of five and criticised the script, opining, “This one is too lopsided for you to appreciate. It leaves a lot unanswered. While it firmly believes ‘Modi ek insaan nahi, soch hai’, we wish the script was as thoughtful”. However, she was among the few who appreciated Oberoi’s performance- “He gets the mannerisms, accent and tone right and thankfully doesn’t overdo it”.

Writing for The Indian Express, Shubhra Gupta gave the movie two stars out of five and stated, “The film is not a mere bio-pic, it is a full-fledged, unabashed, unapologetic hagiography”.Kennith Rosario of The Hindu summarised the movie’s narrative as “a obsequious love letter” to the protagonist which tells the audience “how sincere, hardworking, fair and honest Modi is, that it makes you wonder if life is a parody of this film”.
