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

"I am 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," said Vivian Sunday on the sets of the show here.

Also featuring Drashti Dhami in the female lead and Avinesh Reki, the show airs on Sony TV from Monday to Saturday at 8:30 p.m.

Avinesh plays Vivian's step-brother Sultan.

While shooting an action sequence with Avinesh, Vivian was impressed with the latter's sincerity.

"Avinesh is a very sincere kind of a guy. I am the one who is notorious and fun-loving person on the sets," said Vivian.
