It’s been two weeks since the premiere of Bigg Boss 18, and the show is creating a buzz with massive fights, rivalry, and friendship goals. And if you are a Bigg Boss fan, you already know who is ruling over hearts, and it’s none other than ‘Colors Ka Ladla’ Vivian DSena. He is probably the most popular actor in the television space with his impactful performances in shows like Pyaar Kii Ye Ek Kahani, Madhubala- Ek Ishq Ek Junoon, Shakti- Astitva Ke Ehsaas Ki after marking his debut with Kasamh Se. From the premiere of Bigg Boss 18, Vivian has charmed everyone with his good looks, beautiful smile, and amazing personality. Interestingly, the first matter of Bigg Boss 18 started with Vivian opposite co-contestant Chahat Pandey. His manner of speaking and attitude made fans compare him with Sidharth Shukla, while many claim that he is copying the late actor. The question arises: Is Vivian really trying to copy Sidharth Shukla?
Let’s start from the point where fans began comparing Vivian with Sidharth. That is after ex-Bigg Boss contestant Rajiv Adatia shared his opinion about getting Shukla vibes from Vivian with his tweet that reads, “I’ve known Vivian for years he’s sooo intelligent and knowledgable! He’s giving me Shukla vibes in the house!! Hes gonna kill it I can tell you!! I have a feeling this season is going to do really well!!”
After Rajiv’s tweet, fans expressed their opinions. One user said, “Sach me bilkul sid ki vibe aau mujhe bhi.”
However, the other Sidharth Shukla fan was offended and said, “Taking Shukla’s name… Sahi tarika h engagement gain krne ka…U may know Shukla n Vivian personally, but plz do not compare King to any other contender since no one can match Shukla’s level of gameplay in bb house.”
The third claims that Vivian is copying Sidharth by mentioning the towel scene, “In short in he trying to look like sid. Copy cat bhi bol sakte h
Aaj maene dekha wo towel le ke ghoom rha tha jaise sid ghoomta tha.”
Now, let’s check the facts. Vivian’s fight with Chahat Pandey might have made fans recall the fights between Sidharth Shukla and Rashmi Desai, but Vivian is a different personality altogether. The late Sidharth Shukla, who was also a Bigg Boss 13 winner, was very loud and proactive when it came to arguments. With Vivian so far in the house, he tries to solve the situation calmly instead of indulging in an argument. During the second Weekend, Ka Vaar, housemates called him lazy for taking a stand, which was different in the late Sidharth Shukla case.
In addition, Vivian Dsena’s wife, Nouran Aly, requested the actor’s fans to stop comparing him with the late Sidharth Shukla and penned a long note with a photo of Vivian and Sidharth together, “I kindly request all VD’s fans, neutral supporters, and followers to stop comparing them to each other… These 2 had started their journey almost together, they always had a healthy competition and none of them had ever said a bad word to the other or got into any conflict or argument; in fact, they were very good friends who had shared a special bond… Both have a great career graph and gave hit shows. Even if there is a bit of similarity in character, that doesn’t take anything from any of them… Let’s give peace to the one who isn’t among us now and respect to the one who is challenging himself and trying his best inside the house … Let’s please not get busy with these meaningless fights and put all our efforts, love and time to support him through his journey.”
In conclusion, it is not right to claim that Vivian Dsena is copying Sidharth Shukla; however, his personality and some of his habits are making fans recall Sidharth Shukla.
