Samit Kakkar, director of the recently released streaming series 'Dharavi Bank', has called Bollywood actor Vivek Oberoi a "one-take actor". He was impressed with how well the actors prepared for their parts in the series. Elaborating on the same, Kakkad said,"It is always a very enriching and fruitful experience when we get to work with actors such as Vivek who are aware of the pre-requisites and inner workings of the craft. He's undoubtedly one of the hardest-working actors, and with his level of commitment from beginning to end, the process is made significantly simpler. The kind of preparation that he brings to the table is unparalleled."
Vivek plays JCP Jayant Gavaskar in the MX Original series, which also stars his 'Shootout At Lokhandwala' co-star Suniel Shetty. Unlike the cops Vivek has played before, this time in 'Dharavi Bank', fury and rage drive his character's decisions, but his conscious moral compass keeps him sane and helps him navigate difficult situations. does. The show has been shot in the narrow streets of Mumbai's Dharavi slum, which houses over one million people. The director added "Vivek Oberoi is a brilliant one-take actor, he is a director's actor, a rather intelligent one. We had no second takes throughout the shoot and if we did, it was for technical reasons like for different camera variations and angles. He goes above and beyond for every shot; instead of using glycerin during emotional sequences, he genuinely brings the character to life and sheds actual tears. Working with him was an absolute pleasure."
