HT-D-Not like shows character - Vivian

He is seen as a stubborn and arrogant film star RK in the TV show, Madhubala... Ek Ishq Ek Junoon, but actor Vivian D'Sena (right) says that in real life, he is poles apart from his character.

"I'm the opposite of RK in real life. There is no comparison or similarity between Vivian and RK. Both are poles apart and it should be like that only," he says.

The show also features actors Drashti Dhami and Avinesh Reki. While Drashti — who is currently also a contestant on a TV dance reality show — plays RK's wife Madhu, Avinesh plays his step-brother, Sultan.

While shooting an action sequence with Avinesh, Vivian was impressed with the latter's sincerity towards work. "Avinesh is a very sincere kind of a guy. I'm the notorious and fun-loving one on the sets," says the 25-year-old.
