He said Divyanka’s parents asked him how he would handle the matter, and he explained: “I gave them (Divyanka’s family) a very clear answer that I will never compare myself to her, Unless she compares herself with me. The day you start thinking that I am Divyanka’s husband and my identity is limited to that, that day I will not be able to control my emotions. But as long as you respect me, I will always I won’t let that happen in our relationship. That’s a promise I made.”

Vivek and Divyanka first met on the sets of the TV show Yeh Hai Mohabbatein and started dating. They got married on July 8, 2016.

In the interview, Vivek revealed that he often shared his frustrations with Divyanka. Talking about her understanding of nature, he said: “As the years went by, I was just one person, and when I started working, I started to feel like it was time to get my own identity. But then it did happen, in some cases I did feel a little frustrated and I usually talked to Divyanka about it.” He added: “She understood me from day one, so there was never an issue. As long as she and I were on the same page. , I don’t care what the world thinks.”
