Producer-director Ekta Kapoor has ruled television content for years, with some of the biggest and best shows. With these, Ekta has also forged a long-lasting relationship with actors who have worked with her. Just recently, Shweta Tiwari praised Ekta in an exclusive interview with SCREEN.
Ekta is very fierce when defending her public image. The Balaji Telefilms producer recently hit back at ‘unprofessional actors’ who have been spreading ‘false information’ about her shows.
Ekta Kapoor put up a cryptic message on social media saying, “Unprofessional actors giving interviews about my shows shud shut up! False information N skewed stories. Can only last till. I talk’…… but there is dignity in silence.” This comes a few days after actor Ram Kapoor shared in a viral interview how he was hesitant to kiss Bade Acche Lagte Hai co-star Sakshi Tanwar. He also stated that the show’s TRPs were negatively impacted.
During an interview with Siddharth Kannan, Ram Kapoor said, “Ekta’s the one who wrote the scene, wanted us to do the scene… I told Ekta, ‘Are you sure? Ye television mein pehle kabhi hua nahi hai, it was the first kiss of television, which is a big thing. And three generations watch (the show) together… but Ekta was very confident ki wo karna hai…. I said, okay, I’ll first get a go-ahead from my wife… Fir maine Sakshi ko bola ki look, I will handle Ekta. If you have a problem, tell me.”
While Ekta slammed unprofessional actors, netizens are sure she was hinting at Ram. On the work front, Ekta’s last production The Sabarmati Report starring Vikrant Massey, Ridhi Dogra, and Raashii Khanna received a great response from the audience and critics.
