Vivek Oberoi's controversial meme row needs no introduction. The actor recently tweeted a meme around the exit polls of Lok Sabha elections that revolved around Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Salman Khan. The PM Narendra Modi actor was heavily criticised for his attempt to be funny and Sonam Kapoor even tagged him as disgusting. Though he apologised for his sense of humour and was compelled to delete his tweet, seems like Abhishek Bachchan was quite miffed with him (maybe he still is). PM Narendra Modi Actor Vivek Oberoi Gets Death Threats for Sharing a Viral Meme on Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Salman Khan.

As per a report in Times of India, Abhishek was quite upset with the entire incident and thought it was unwarranted. While the actress was still at Cannes and was shocked to hear about it, it was Bachchan Jr who lost his cool this time. Now the Manmarziyaan actor is known for his cool temper and he isn't someone who loses his cool so easily. However, this time he wanted to retaliate and was even ready for it but his wifey dearest asked him not to. It was Aishwarya who had to intervene to calm him down and he eventually decided to let it go. Vivek Oberoi - Aishwarya Rai Bachchan Meme Controversy: Here's How Urmila Matondkar, Gauahar Khan and Other Celebs Reacted to It.

Aishwarya believed it was just another publicity stunt for his new release but AB Jr was furious over it. We wonder if the actor would have tweeted anything about it or simply dialled Vivek's number to express his concerns. Nonetheless, it was an old chapter that we better forget.
