“I do not cheat my audience,” avers Sirf Tum actor Vivian Dsena

“I do not cheat my audience,” avers Sirf Tum actor Vivian Dsena

Vivian Dsena, one of the most popular actors to have ever graced the Indian television screen, is back to winning audiences’ hearts again with his new daily soap, Sirf Tum. Also starring Esha Singh in the lead role, the show revolves around Ranveer Oberoi and Suhani Sharma, two diametrically opposite individuals who fall head over heels in love with each other.

When asked what makes his show different from other romantic shows on television, Dsena told a digital publication, “See, as I have said earlier, I personally do not want to repeat myself, so I do not want to repeat something I have done in my career. I have not played a college boy, that too one with a medical background. I have never experienced this because this is a challenge as those terms from science and biology are tricky, which one needs to get the right way since there is no other way. So, we have to work hard. I had to go through a transformation to look my part, and of course, work on a theoretical part.”


When asked how creatively satisfied he is with the kind of work that he does, the actor said, “Until and unless I am not happy, I won’t be able to do something and if I do not love my job, what is the point of doing my job. I am creatively satisfied and I use my creative energies to do what I am best at. I am good at this and that is what people around me and fans probably, feel so my only job would be I do not cheat them, I do not cheat my audience, I do not repeat myself and I do what I am best at doing.”

Produced by Rashmi Sharma Telefilms, Sirf Tum airs on Colors.

Riz Ahmed’s 'Hamlet' trailer drops murder suspicion into a South Asian business dynasty

  • Film sets Shakespeare inside a wealthy British South Asian family
  • Directed by Aneil Karia and in cinemas 6 February 2025
  • Cast includes Morfydd Clark, Joe Alwyn, Sheeba Chadha and Art Malik

Riz Ahmed has entered Hamlet in a way British cinema has not quite seen. The new Hamlet trailer has been released by Universal, giving the first proper look at Aneil Karia’s modern take on Shakespeare and placing the story inside a British South Asian business empire. It is due in cinemas on 6 February, and the footage shows a tense, controlled Ahmed moving through grief, suspicion and family power.

The film teams Ahmed and Karia again after The Long Goodbye, which won the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short. That success informs this production. This is the first time a major UK studio release has grounded Hamlet within a South Asian household for a wide audience.
