Ekta kapoor: Queen Ekta Kapoor of Indian television and film industry is not interested in any introduction today. Through his strong production house Balaji Telefilms, he has made a distinct identity in Bollywood. But along with his professional success, his personal life has always been in discussion. Especially the question, why did Ekta Kapoor not marry even at the age of 50? Ekta Kapoor, whose father is famous actor Jitendra, has set several records in his career.

Father’s condition changed the path at the age of 17

Ekta Kapoor revealed in an interview that her father Jitendra showed her two ways when she was just 17 years old. Ekta said, "Papa told me that either you get married and do a lot of party as you want, or start working according to me now." This condition put Ekta in deep thinking. He took his father’s advice seriously and chose the work.

Dream of marriage was at the age of 15 years

Ekta Kapoor said that when she was 15 years old, she was very fond of marriage. She says, "When I was 15 years old. Then I loved to party, and during that time I also wanted to get married." But Papa put two conditions in front of me. He chose his career and produced his first TV show ‘Hum five’ at the age of 19, which was a super hit.

Immersed in work, forgotten marriage

Following the father’s advice, Ekta gave priority to her career and gave a hit show one after the other through the banner of Balaji Telefilms. Shows like ‘Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi’, ‘Kasauti Zindagi Ki’, and ‘Kumkum Bhagya’ made her the queen of TV. Ekta told, "I decided to shoot a pilot for the show with us five names and sold it to G-TV. When it was onar, I was 19 years old. The show became a hit and all my ways changed."

Career heights unity

Today Ekta Kapoor’s production house Balaji Telefilms holds a value of more than Rs 400 crore, and her personal assets are around Rs 95 crore. He has produced more than 130 TV shows and many films. Ekta has left her mark not only in the TV industry, but also on the OTT platform through Alt Balaji.
