There’s no second thought that Ekta Kapoor is the undisputed queen and diva of the Indian television industry and rules the game single-handedly. The czarina of sass and wit, Ekta Kapoor sits atop the list of most influential women in the television industry today. Daughter of veteran actor Jeetendra and Shobha Kapoor, Ekta Kapoor has managed to turn the fate of male-dominated entertainment industry by ruling it like a queen ufabet.
Ekta Kapoor, apart from numerous television shows based on family drama, mythology, and history; has also produced and directed many Bollywood movies that have worked extremely well at the box office. You might be having the best set top box from any DTH, but the game is still incomplete without Ekta Kapoor’s serials.
Here are some of the lesser-known facts about Ekta Kapoor you probably didn’t know but are interesting as grapevine:
Ekta Kapoor’s romance with television industry and showbiz started from the tender age of 15 when she started assisting and interning with the filmmaker Kailash Surendranath. She wanted to become a producer but didn’t have adequate financial support then. It was only after father Jeetendra decided to finance her daughter’s ambitions that she eventually became a producer.
Ekta Kapoor is a blind and staunch supporter of astrology and numerology and practises that very sternly. This is the reason behind why most of her serials name starts with letter ‘K’. She is also spotted wearing black platform heels and sandals at almost every party or appearance as supposedly, she is been advised to wear those by her astrologers.
Ekta Kapoor is probably one and the only ever film producer to have produced and directed shows for all three mediums – television, big screen, and web. Ekta Kapoor’s online digital platform ALT Balaji has over 40 web series produced by her.
Not many know that Ekta Kapoor is a single mother and unmarried. She recently became mother to a son born via surrogacy and named him after her father’s born name, Ravi Kapoor. She named her son as ‘Ravie’ with an extra ‘e’ because of the numerology reasons.
While Ekta Kapoor rule all the DTH screens and the even the best set top boxes are incomplete without her shows, the strong-willed and fiercely-independent lady is afraid of heights, darkness, and helicopters.
Ekta Kapoor, the queen of all sanskaari shows on television and DTH, is actually a person with quirky sense of humour and cracks everyone up with her adult jokes. She has produced some of the Bollywood movies with explicit and adult content like Ragini MMS, Kya Kool Hain Hum, and more.
Ekta Kapoor is a huge animal lover and supporter. While many celebrities have dogs as pets, Ekta went a step ahead and adopted many stray dogs around her house and office. According to a leading tabloid, many of the stray dogs around her office and house visit her office regularly and are taken very good care of.
Apart from above, Ekta Kapoor also launched her fashion label ‘EK’ in order to make fashion affordable and accessible while penetrating into the middle-class Indian households. While you may have the best DTH and the best set top box in the country, if you aren’t an Ekta Kapoor fan for her ferociousness, it’s just not worth it!
