"Films are an image of life, it borrows from life, let life not borrow from films. Let's set an example," he added.
Meanwhile, when asked if he ever sets a condition of not smoking in a film before signing it, Vivek said, "I don't set any such conditions. As an actor that's not my right. The director, the script - it's their decision."

"Yes, I try, I ask them if they can manage without this. If they say yes, like it has happened in some films, I was supposed to smoke and I said I'd rather not and if it's possible please adjust it and some people adjust," he added.
Vivek has been associated with the Cancer Patient Aid Association for the past 10 years.
