Inside Vivek Oberoi's Dubai home: The ‘money-man' with the net worth of Rs 1200 crore who grows ‘kadhi patta' and collects ‘desi' art

Actor Vivek Oberoi, who started earning from his business endeavours as early as the age of 19, recently opened up his Dubai home to the fans and gave a look inside the 'home away from home' that he and his wife, Priyanka, have built. Situated in the scenic and glorious Meadows, where the prices of a house can range from Rs 11 crore all the way to Rs 50 crore. The house exudes class and panache while paying tribute to Vivek's childhood memories of growing up in Mumbai. Starting with the story behind the house, Vivek credited his wife for the entire episode and said that he is now glad that they didn't move to downtown Dubai, like he initially wanted to. 'I didn't even select the location of this house. All of this – the house, the interior, and the design – all credit goes to Priyanka; she is the boss. Both of us love paintings, but I was the one who chose all the art for the house, all 'desi' painters. The rest of it is all Priyanka. She is in love with the whole 'vintage' and 'homey' style of decor. We are also surrounded by a lot of greenery, and my wife is a 'constant' gardener,' Vivek shared with Curly Tales. ALSO READ: Inside Aayush Sharma-Arpita Khan's apartment where they live in separate rooms: 'Whenever she is upset with me…' He mentioned how the greenery, the paintings and certain things around the house keep their memories of India alive, yet according to Vivek, home is still Mumbai. He said, 'If you ask me where home is, it is still Mumbai, because even now when I go back there, I don't feel like returning to Dubai. But I love living here as well, and I think it's trying to have the best of both worlds. We have tried to recreate a lot of our memories; we are surrounded by a lot of water; we have got the gulmohar trees that I grew up around in Juhu; and we have our own organic garden with curry leaves and some vegetables once in a while.' As an entrepreneur who handles a vast portfolio containing several businesses and is worth more than Rs 1200 crore, Vivek knows the importance of a relaxing home. He mentioned how he slowly eases up as he returns to his home after a long day and how even though handling businesses can be chaotic, he is happy with the life he leads here. Vivek said, 'The move to Dubai was business orientated, and your home should be a place which is very easy on you. Being able to spend time with your kids and come back from work at a reasonable hour. I get to live the 'non-film' life here that I never had in India. We try our best to keep it simple here.' Talking about his 'film' life, Vivek was last seen in Kesari Veer, alongside Suniel Shetty and Suraj Pancholi, and has several projects currently in the pipeline.

Sonakshi Sinha ‘froze' when she felt the presence of a ‘harmless ghost' in her bedroom: ‘I felt some sort of pressure, like someone waking me up'

Sonakshi Sinha, whose last prominent role was in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Heeramandi, will next be seen in a paranormal film titled Nikita Roy, and during the promotions of this film, Sonakshi shared that she once experienced some paranormal activity in her home. So much so that the next day, when she entered her house, she addressed the entity by talking to it loudly, but since then, she hasn't experienced anything of such nature. In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, she shared an eerie incident that challenged her long-held disbelief in ghosts. 'I used to not believe. I used to not believe at all,' she admitted. 'But one day, something very weird happened to me in my own house. So, since then, I'm a little bit shaken in my belief. But then after that, nothing happened, so then I was like, maybe it was a dream, you know? So, I don't know. It was a harmless ghost. Possibly.' Recalling the unsettling incident, Sonakshi detailed the bizarre sensation she experienced in the early hours of the morning. 'So, I was sleeping. You know that sleep where you're awake, but you're not awake? Your eyes are shut, but your mind is on, and like that. So, it was just that. And it was around 4 am or something like that. And I don't know if it was a dream or not. I suddenly felt, you know, some sort of pressure, like somebody's just like, waking me up. I died. I was so scared. I didn't even open my eyes. I didn't even open my eyes to see, koi hai, nahi hai. I just froze. Like, I literally froze. I couldn't move. And then, I didn't open my eyes till the morning, till the lights came. It really shook me up.' Also Read | Sonakshi Sinha opens up about equation with her brothers Luv and Kush: 'Bhaiyonn ko jalan toh hoti thi' The experience left such a strong impression on her that even the following day, she found herself unnerved upon returning home. 'The next day, when I was coming home, it was late at night again, so when I opened my door, and I peeked in first. And then I said, very loudly: Jo bhi aaya tha kal raat ko, phirse aise mat karo main bohot darr gayi thi. Agar kuch bhi baat karni hai toh mere sapne mein aana… no face to face conversation. (Whoever came last night, please don't do that again, I was very scared. If you have anything to say, come into my dreams… no face-to-face conversation.) And then I walked in. And I swear after that nothing of this kind has happened.' Earlier this year, Sonakshi sold her Bandra home for Rs 22.5 crore.
