Why did Vivek Oberoi split with his fiancee Gurpreet? Although Vivek dodges the question most astutely whenever any interviewer probes along those uncomfortable lines, informed insiders tell us that Gurpreet had been suffering from the ‘J' syndrome for a while. Vivek hugging a sexy Antara Mali on the big screen, Vivek doing a soft and tender number with Rani Mukherjee in Saathiya, Vivek getting closer to a third heroine in a third film: that, for Gurpreet, was too tough to handle. The good news is that the parting has been amicable. There was no bitterness when the duo decided to split, and they continue to be good friends even now.
In any case, this seems to the season of splitting in Bollywood. Not long ago, Priyanshu Chatterjee and Malini parted ways. Priyanshu too did not speak about it: at least not till it happened. The marriage of Aamir Khan and Reena Dutta took the first step towards the end with the couple filing for divorce a few days ago. The latter's marriage was compared to the Nicole Kidman-Tom Cruise counterpart in Bollywood. The one difference: Reena is not a star.
Back to Vivek. Gurpreet and he had been going strong for quite some time, and the engagement obviously implied that a marriage was on the cards sooner or later. Perhaps, Gurpreet was not prepared for Vivek's superstardom and the consequential excess baggage. May be, she wanted things in life to be simpler than they now are. Since Vivek is a good guy, we won't shake hands with the bitchy section of the industry which might be insinuating that Vivek has changed. For the bigger, and the worse.
