Today the diva and stunner Ekta Kapoor (Balaji Telefilms) celebrates her birthday and as someone who has been a game changed in the business of Indian television, we pay a salute and list ten reasons why she is the ultimate Czarina of small screen.

1. Ekta Kapoor is ‘God on TV’ for she grants birth, death and rebirth to characters at will.

2. She understands a typical Indian family and her shows have sanskaari betas, bahus, saas, sasur, pati, patni…and the entire dynasty.

3. She changes economics by granting all families with huge mansions, heavy costumes, jewelry and makeup although they are not even showed working anytime.

4. There is no dearth of romance and coochie cooing on her shows with consummation scenes getting a lot of focus.

5. Ekta is all about women empowerment and strength. Her K serial heroines are mostly rich, powerful and beautiful and no one can stop them.

6. The true example of this power is her creation Tulsi Virani- Smriti Irani who has moved from her kitchen politics to handling the HRD Ministry of our country.

7. Her shows have the ‘mazboot jod’ for they carry on for years and years without fail.

8. Though shows are still entities; her characters too have the elixir of life getting a chance to live past 100 years.

9. Jarod Kintz once said, “My facial expressions can feed the poor”, and seeing actors’ expressions in Ekta’s shows, the whole world will be certainly well fed.

10. She has anger issues and has the final say on all actors whether newcomer or veterans! She rules, you see.
