Vivek turns baddie for 'The Amazing Spiderman 2'

16th April 2014

Bollywood star Vivek Oberoi's down trotted career took a big leap when he bagged the role of a baddie in 'Krrish 3'

Vivek played the role to perfection and his career got a new lease of life. And hence it comes as no surprise that he is getting similar offers these days. 

One such offer that came to him recently was turning a baddie for the Hollywood film 'The Amazing Spiderman 2'.

Unlike Irrfan Khan who played the villainous character in the original, he hasn't been offered the onscreen part, but was signed to dub the lines of villain played by Jamie Foxx in the sequel. Vivek has dubbed his lines for the film's Hindi version.

Not many know that Vivek has also dubbed for films like 'Independence day' and 'The Rock' in his early days when he was not an actor. 

He says when he was trying to get into the industry, he did all odd jobs to get closer to the film industry and hence when the latest offer came he became nostalgic. 

The actor is a professionally trained voice over artist and it took him not more than two days to dub for the Hollywood flick. However, he confesses that it wasn't an easy job.
