This Holi, ‘Shakti’ fans rejoice as Rubina Dilaik and Vivian Dsena rekindle their chemistry on COLORS’ ‘Laughter Chefs’

Holi is all about colours, chaos, and unforgettable reunions—and this year, COLORS’ ‘Laughter Chefs Unlimited Entertainment’ is stirring up something truly special. With a lineup as dazzling as a Bollywood blockbuster, the episode features special guests Nimrit Kaur Ahluwalia, Mika Singh, Shilpa Shirodkar, Nishant Bhatt, and Sajid Khan, ensuring that the Holi celebrations are packed with laughter, music, and full-on entertainment. While the kitchen is usually ablaze with masaledar showdowns and rib-tickling antics, this festive episode brings a flavour of nostalgia as Vivian Dsena and Rubina Dilaik reunite, rekindling their Shakti magic that fans had been vying for!
Some bonds are like a well-seasoned dish—timeless, full of flavour, and best served with love! That’s exactly what this reunion delivers. Making a grand filmy entry, Vivian Dsena arrives with a dhol in hand, bringing back the magic of Shakti as he lovingly calls Rubina ‘Gulabo’—just like old times! With a mischievous smile, he teases, “Gulabo, itne saalon baad mile hain toh dance karna toh banta hai!” With effortless chemistry, the duo stuns with a soulful performance on Tere Ishq Hai Meri Ibadat, setting the stage (and hearts) on fire.
But what’s a reunion without some good old leg-pulling? As Rubina and Vivian take over the kitchen, their playful bickering serves up a fresh dose of entertainment. Krushna Abhishek, always the mischief-maker, jumps in with a cheeky question: “Vivian, Rubina ke saath kaam karke kaisa laga?” Without missing a beat, Vivian smirks and delivers a classic one-liner – “Woh daant ti nahi thi, seedha ladai kar leti thi!”
Sharing her emotions, Rubina Dilaik says, “COLORS has been home to some of the most defining chapters of my journey, and Shakti remains one of the brightest highlights of my career. It was a show that not only challenged me as an actor but also gave me a super special connection with the audience. Stepping onto the Laughter Chefs set for the Holi special and reuniting with the one and only Vivian Dsena felt like time travelling back to the magic of a show that touched so many hearts. The moment Vivian walked in, called me ‘Gulabo,’ and we danced to Tere Ishq Hai Meri Ibadat, it felt like no time had passed. It was emotional, surreal, and incredibly heartwarming. Only when you take a step back do you realize the kind of legacy you’ve been a part of, and reliving those moments on Laughter Chefs was a mesmerizing nostalgia trip. I’m sure all those who loved Shakti will enjoy the fun, the banter, and the chemistry that Vivian and I still share. I’m grateful for the opportunity to bring this moment to life for our fans and to celebrate Holi in such a memorable way.”
