Vivek Oberoi's Valentine's Day video lands him in trouble as cops fine him for riding bike without helmet

Trouble mounted for Vivek Oberoi after the Mumbai Police issued an e-challan to the actor for riding a bike without a helmet. It so happened that Meenu Varghese, a social activist had requested Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh and the state police to take action against Oberoi for violation of traffic rules. As a result, the Santacruz traffic police have fined him over the same. On the other hand, Varghese re-shared the video on social media which was earlier shared by him.

Vivek had posted this particular video on his social media handles on Valentine’s Day in which he got a new bike. Not only that but he could be seen riding the vehicle with his wife during the night. However, he did not wear a helmet while doing so which eventually landed him in trouble. Earlier, he wrote in his caption, “What a start of this lovely valentine's day with Main, Meri patni aur woh! A refreshing joyride indeed!”
