Vivek Oberoi praises Rohit Shetty 

At the same event, as per ANI, Vivek also shared, "I have known him (Rohit) for many years. Playing Vikram Bakshi was an amazing experience I have a lot of respect for cops. I believe Rohit Shetty has made significant contributions to the cinematic image of a decent cop, a brave heroic sacrificial police officer, because when we were growing up, we mostly saw evil cops on--screen. He transformed that image, and the Indian Police Force is an extension of that."
