Nice point raised here, Vikram tells the bitter truth right on face, in many instances, for example , he called Tina MOTI because she is fat and that's a fact which he thought he should tell, but again, it was rude as per general norms, and I guess those instances with all secretaries are shown to give an insight to his character.
There is another trait or character to Vikram, he generalizes all female folks and is quite prejudiced against women, he thinks highly of himself and considers himself the perfect man ever.. When Shobha crashes her car into his, he generalizes all females as bad drivers. He calls all wives as doormats. Vikram is not perfect, he considers himself to be perfect which is a flaw, he generalizes and passes prejudiced remarks which is again a flaw and he is just blunt, rude and brutally honest ?
Now your question, will he be able to take the truth with a pinch of salt ??
Until Shobha, I believe no one ever raised a finger or pointed a flaw in Mr.Perfectionist, he was in a imaginary bubble about himself being the lord of perfection, but when Shobha was saying those words and Naani gesturing and asking him, if these words are for him, he confidently says he is a rockstar for his secretary and he is the perfect and not khadoos...this is what he believes and thinks himself to be.. He never tried to know what others think of him, like Shobha or Mahesh or the sanitizer guy ,, The words Shobha said were like he was hit by a jolt, someone pricked his bubble, he was just too shocked that his perfect image is breached .
He sulked and sulked and sulked over it and got back to her at every instance..no one would appreciate the truth and say yeah I am khadoos ., it's human nature, we silently accept it without retorting or being in denial... but he did accept it without actually saying it ... the following scenes highlight that, he came across completed unbiased at Shobha's Ad presentation., he stepped out and let his marketing team judge the Ad... he knows if he takes it would be prejudiced and biased decision, hence he didn't involve himself in that decision. if he hadn't accepted those words by Shobha or if he hadn't let go off those words, and if he had any grudges against he, he could still remove her from job, because he is THE BOSS 😎 but he didn't do that .. so this proves he accepted those words and didn't take it as an insult or humiliation there by taking revenge on her, obviously by firing.
Today he said another very important line "par meri ek aur bimaari hain...sach kaheni ki, karne ki aur sunne ki " he has a bimaari of doing rightful things, hearing and speaking TRUTH !!
