‘Crying with pride’: Vivek Oberoi’s adopted daughter survives cancer, signs her first film

Vivek Oberoi, the actor, adopted a young girl named Sahara Shah when she was just two-and-a-half years old. Sahara, now 22 and cancer-free, is set to become a commercial pilot after completing her aviation training. On Tuesday, at a Cancer Rose Day event in Mumbai, she made a surprise announcement: she has signed a lead role in a Nepali film.

This revelation came as a shock to Vivek, who was present at the event. Earlier, Sahara had gifted Vivek a present during his 50th birthday celebration, where she announced her decision to follow in her adoptive father's footsteps by pursuing a career in acting. She expressed her gratitude towards Vivek for his constant support and guidance throughout her life, especially in her endeavors related to acting and dancing. Vivek, visibly emotional, hugged his daughter and congratulated her on this significant milestone.
