Mumbai: After Shootout at Lokhandwala, now actor Vivek Oberoi has moved on to another mission which is another film called Mission Istanbul, where the actor plays a Turkish commander.

CNN-IBN: You have been resting on the laurels of Shootout at Lokhandwala for a year. You desperately want Mission Istanbul to do well. Don't you?

Vivek Oberoi: Yes. Absolutely. Honestly, I want it to be a success. I have worked on it for one year and I have worked really hard. I am hoping people like my character. I am hoping the fans will go out and see some action movie and like the whole machismo and attitude loaded stuff.

CNN-IBN: You are moving from Shootout at Lokhandwala to Mission Istanbul. Don’t you think you are slotting yourself into the action genre?

Vivek Oberoi: I have done just two movies in one year . I am taking it very slow consciously, mainly because I wanted to do different kinds of scripts. I wanted to do scripts that I liked and I think those doors have opened for me now. The film that I am doing now in South Africa with Tips is a huge solo film and it is a great opportunity for me to do something completely different. The film I am doing with Karan Johar is with Saif and Kareena.

CNN-IBN: Is it tough being single or are you enjoying it?

Vivek Oberoi: To be honest, I am enjoying it a bit too much. It worries me how much I am enjoying it. It has been a little over two-years now. I am really happy. I love my life and I like being single. I like going out and meeting interesting people. But, somewhere inside I am a diehard romantic. Somewhere inside, that poetry needs inspiration. I think I will find my soul mate. I think it will hit me like a star that bolts out of the sky and hits the head.

CNN-IBN: What kind of a girl are you looking for?

Vivek Oberoi: Very honestly. I am looking for someone very simple and someone from the ordinary world, who would make my world extraordinary.
