Ekta Kapoor
Ekta Kapoor (born 7 June 1975) is an Indian television and film producer, known for her work in Hindi television and Bollywood cinema. She is the founder of Balaji Telefilms Limited, where she serves as joint managing director and creative head.
Kapoor began her career at the age of 17 and became known for producing a large number of television soap operas in Hindi, many of which gained significant popularity during the late 1990s and 2000s. Her biggest success came in 2000 with Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi on StarPlus which had the highest TRP for an Indian serial with 22.4 and was the most successful serial at its time. She followed it with Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii (2000) and Kasautii Zindagii Kay (2001) to become the Queen of Indian television.
In 2001, Balaji Motion Pictures was launched as a subsidiary company of Balaji Telefilms Limited, which is a film production and distribution company. In addition to television, Kapoor has produced several Hindi films through Balaji Motion Pictures, including The Dirty Picture, Lootera, Main Tera Hero, Dream Girl, Crew, and The Sabarmati Report.
In April 2017, she launched ALTBalaji, a video on demand platform. In 2022, she and her mother, Shobha Kapoor, stepped down from operations of ALTBalaji. The platform's management was subsequently taken over by Vivek Koka as Chief Business Officer. In 2025, this app was banned by the Government of India on OTT Platforms for over obscene and vulgar content.
In 2017, Kapoor also launched her biography, Kingdom of the Soap Queen: The Story of Balaji Telefilms.
Kapoor was honored with the Padma Shri in 2020 for her work in the field of arts. She is also honored with the 2023 International Emmy Directorate Award at the 51st International Emmy Awards.
Kapoor has recently announced several upcoming projects in film and television. Among her film productions are Vrusshabha, starring Mohanlal and Bhoot Bangla featuring Akshay Kumar. She is also producing Vvan, with Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah in lead roles. On television, she is working on the seventh season of her long-running supernatural series Naagin.
Kapoor is the daughter of actors Jeetendra and Shobha Kapoor. Her younger brother, Tusshar Kapoor, is also a Bollywood actor.
