do you mean with current user the user that started workflow?

if so then there exists Initiator resp. Initiator's Display Name common references which you could use.

Hi Rams PMK‌,

Yes, you can use 'Initiator's Display Name' from insert reference of Nintex Workflow.

1. Using 'Set Variable' action get people picker field display name.

2. Then use 'Run If' or 'Set a condition' actions, to compare against 'Initiator's Display Name'.
