Actor Vivek Oberoi often speaks about his past relationships in most of the interviews. He never shies away from revealing his break-ups or past relationships. In a new interview, Vivek opened up about his public break-ups and what he learned from his 'toxic relationships'.

In a conversation with Anas Boukhash in his podcast, Vivek said that he had a rough time in the early 2000s when he had a ‘public breakup’ and there was a setback in his career.

On what he learned from his past relationships, the 'Saathiya' actor said, “Each serious relationship teaches you. It leaves you with something. The bad breakups, the really toxic relationships teach you your patterns. They teach you what you should stay away from. Like I discovered that some of us have a hero complex, where you come in like a knight in shining armour, and say, ‘I will take care of this for you’.”

''It’s not easy to constantly be on this pedestal and live up to the expectations that you’ve created for yourself. Then you make the other person used to, if they’re not manipulating you, to become used to expecting that of you. And now you can’t change. You can’t just say, ‘We’re equals, let’s carry the load together’ because that’s what makes a good, honest relationship. That’s what I learned from toxic relationships, it’s so important to break the pattern,'' he added.

On the work front, Vivek Oberoi will be seen in the Prime Video series 'Indian Police Force', a spin-off series of Rohit Shetty’s cop universe. It also stars Sidharth Malhotra, Shilpa Shetty, Isha Talwar and Shweta Tiwari among others.
