Mumbai, Nov 12 (NationPress) Actor Vivek Oberoi, recently spotted in ‘Kesari Veer’, extended a heartfelt birthday greeting to Aryan Khan, the director, on his special day. He also recounted an inspiring tale that reflects Aryan's determined spirit, reminiscent of his father, the iconic Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan.

On Wednesday, Vivek took to Instagram Stories to share a photo of Aryan. He recounted how Aryan, motivated by his father’s impressive 6-pack abs in ‘Om Shanti Om’, dedicated himself to achieving a similar physique, successfully developing his own 6-pack a few months post the film’s release.

In his post, he wrote, “Happy Birthday, @___aryan. I fondly remember when you were much younger, you expressed your desire for a 6-pack, just like your dad. I believe that was around the time of ‘Om Shanti Om’. When I saw you again a few months later, you had achieved it!”

Vivek continued, “I felt immense pride in your determination and tenacity regarding your goals, and that resolve has only grown stronger with time. Huge congratulations on the success of The Ba*ds of Bollywood, and may your journey continue to soar! Always cheering for you.”

Earlier that day, actress Kajol, a frequent collaborator of SRK, also took to social media to wish Aryan a very happy birthday. Sharing a photo of herself alongside Aryan and his superstar father, she wrote, “Here’s to new beginnings and bigger dreams. Have a fantastic birthday” and tagged Aryan.

Kajol has consistently shown her support for Aryan, especially as he embarked on his Bollywood journey with his directorial debut, ‘The Ba*ds of Bollywood’, in September, for which she had even penned a congratulatory note.
