Vivek Oberoi reveals the real reason behind shifting to Dubai: ‘I initially went there for a little while…’

Sharing details about his business, the actor previously told Curly Tales, “My focus is to create value everywhere I go, so back home in India, I built a fintech company, which had a little bit of social angle–to try bring kids who cannot get loans for their education. Now, the company helps almost 45 lakh kids in India. Then I built an education startup that focused only on small town guys–kids who don’t get access to best teachers in the big cities. They get better education called I Scholar. In India, we run an agri startup that helps 97 lakh Indian farmers. My businesses are more like tech meet social impact, which I love doing.”

God’s been kind to me, Dubai has been good to me. It’s been a success story here.”

The actor has been living in the city for around three years. He owns a luxurious house which has a garden, pool, and a very aesthetic interiors.
