Vivek Oberoi attends the Youth Concert barefooted

After displaying his acting talents in ‘Rakhtacharitra’, Vivek Oberoi displayed his ardent spiritual and devoted side when he came in barefooted to attend the Youth Concert with spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar on the occasion of National Youth Day on Jan 12 at Andheri Sports Complex. His barefoot was aptly complimented with traditional attire of a veshti and an angvastram. He sat beside Hema Malini at the concert.
The concert saw performances by the musician trio Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy. Spiritual guru Sri Sri Ravi Shankar said there was a need to set up an ‘independent body’ to keep a check on corruption and financial scams.
‘Agencies that are supposed to check the scams are also involved in the same scams. We need to have people of character and honesty to check corruption. Such a body must be positioned independent from the government,’ Sri Sri Ravi Shankar told reporters.
The spiritual guru lauded the role of media in exposing the scams and said that without the media acting as a public watchdog, such ills would have been buried unnoticed.
