Vivian Dsena is thrilled to play a superstar in the new show Madhubala Ek Ishq Ek Junoon.And the name coined for the actor is 'RK'. "I am pretty kicked about the fact that people have started calling me the small screen superstar. No one has played a superstar on television in the past," says the actor.
Interestingly, Vivian's look and styling is pretty close to that of the Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor. The young model-turned-actor, who weighed 98 kilos, had to lose about 12 kilos for this character. He achieved the feat by playing football and gymming for hours together.
"A superstar needs to be idolized, so having a proportionate body was important. I had gained some weight due to my late night shoots," he says adding,"People ask me whether I pay Ranbir Kapoor or Rishi Kapoor or Raj Kapoor in the show. But I don't think I play any of these actors. The look and style given to me is as per the latest trend and fashion. If I wear a costume what Ranbir had worn in his films, it doesn't mean that I am playing him," says Vivian.
However, the actor admits that he managed to convince the director to include the famous RK pose in the serial. So does he secretly dream of getting into Bollywood some day? "I never really tried getting into movies because it never gave me a kick. As of now, I am focused on television. I am commitment-phobic. If I have given three years of my time to a show, then I won't leave that midway and pick up or grab another project," he says.
And even if he says he's commitment-phobic, on the personal front, the 23-year-old Vivian is happily engaged to actor Vahbbzee Dorabjee, whom he met during the shoot of his last showPyaar Ki... "Your success or failure has got nothing to do with your marital status. I am a complete family person. I strongly believe that one has to find time for his personal life. I would rather spend time with my family than party with my friends. People believe that they won't get work if they are engaged or married. They hide a lot of things in this industry. If that is the case, then I shouldn't be getting work, as I got engaged six months back. What you do after pack-up, no one really cares. It all depends on how good you are before the packup when the director shouts, 'Action'." Point noted.
