‘I’I’M WORKING TO LOSE WEIGHT’
Actor Vivian Dsena is striving for an “agile and fit body”; says he’s glad that he has recovered from his injuries and has begun working out again
Talent is paramount in any profession, but for an actor, their looks and physique are equally important.

Vivian Dsena, known for his good looks, physique, and a string of successful TV shows such as Pyaar Kii Ye Ek Kahaani, Madhubala and his on-going TV show, has lately put on some weight.

Vivian, however, has recovered from his injuries and has begun working out again. He says, “I am working to lose weight, as I have finally recovered from my back and neck injuries.
