Meanwhile, He had further explained why he wanted to be a part of Ramayana and support producer Namit Malhotra’s vision, saying, “I told him I want to support you because I just love what you’re doing, and I think this will take Indian cinema on the global stage with a bang.”
Notably, Nearly a year later, Vivek has now followed through on that commitment. Coinciding with Cancer Rose Day and his milestone 50th year, the star has taken responsibility for the treatment of 50 children battling cancer, effectively turning the remuneration from one of his biggest soon-to-release films into assistance for young patients and their families.

In further updates, With the latest initiative, the star has ensured that the promise he publicly made in 2025 has translated into action – with his 50th year becoming an occasion to extend support to 50 children in their fight against cancer.
