Actor Vivek Oberoi likes to keep busy in two things that are close to his heart – art and charity.
We all know of the extremely noble charity work Vivek did after the last year’s Tsunami. The actor adopted a village in South India and helped there in relief and rehabilitations programs.
Now, actors Akshay Kumar , Pooja Bhatt and Vivek were part of a function that promoted art awareness and also aided Vivek Oberoi's charity organisation called the Yashodhara Oberoi Foundation.
Pooja and Akshay conducted art sale for a day to help bring art awareness at the Ashish Balram Nagpal Art Gallery, Juhu. They also supported the cause of Vivek's charity.
Talking about his charity work, Vivek said: “It is a pleasure to be associated with such a programme as it promotes two things that are very dear to my heart - art and charity.”
“I like to call it Art for Hearts, as part of the proceeds collected will be donated to the Yashodhara Oberoi Foundation for the various causes that it supports, from heart surgery for poor children with ailing hearts to the empowerment of women.”
