5 Alternate professions that Ekta Kapoor could have taken up!

The queen of Television turns 40 today! Over the years, Ekta Kapoor has bought to us a lot of shows that have changed many lives. We don't know where the Indian Television industry would have been if Ekta had picked a different career option. (Thank God, she didn't!)

So we made a list of alternate career options for Ekta, considering her expertise and the inclinations she loves to use (read abuse) in her shows!

1.   Plastic Surgeon.

Ekta Kapoor shows have seen a lot of plastic surgeries. We have seen this several times on her show that when an actor has to leave the show he has an accident that will lead to him falling off a cliff, falling into a river, disappearing all of a sudden... And suddenly out of nowhere, Bammm! The character returns with a plastic surgery that completely changes his/her face! A very efficient technique to pump up the TRPs and justify replacements!

2.  Gangster!

Over the years, Ekta Kapoor's shows have shown powerful women who have a lot of gangster like connections. Arms and ammunition, explosives, Kidnappings, extortion, murder and many such services are offered here. Some fetish eh?

3.  The HRD minister.

Ekta Kapoor has launched a lot of stars in the industry. She has also created a large number of shows that have generated a lot of employment opportunities. If Ekta Kapoor becomes the Human Resource development minister, there would be no issue of unemployment, guaranteed. 

4. Detective.

Almost all of the Bahu's from Ekta Kapoor shows have cracked mysteries. All of her Bahus have successfully cracked down cases like murder, conspiracy, theft and much more (even Terrorism!). We can only imagine what a great detective Ekta Kapoor would have been. Sherlock would get an inferiority complex!

5.  A veterinary doctor!

With shows like Naagin and Yeh Kahan Aa Gaye Hum, it is clear that Ekta has a soft corner for animals as she has now started giving break to animals like tiger, Mongoose, bees, crocodiles and many more. Being a Vet she could be closer to the animals she loves.

We can't imagine where the Television industry would have been if Ekta hadn't stepped in. We wish Ekta a very happy birthday and we hope she keeps providing us more awesome content in the future.
