There's a new couple in our B town Ekta Kapoor and Karan Johar. It is believed that soap opera queen Ekta Kapoor and king of emotional films, Karan cant hide their feelings anymore these days. An industry insider informs us that not just the couple but their families too are happy with this relationship and are looking forward to their marriage.
Ekta and Karan who have known each other since their childhood, hit it off on the set of Koffee with Karan. Both are successful and masters in their work. It is believed that Ekta is fond of Karan's mother as in an interview she claimed that Karan's mother gives inputs to her soaps, which are invaluable. Both Karan and his mom have always been very supportive to her.
The duo have one thing in common and that is their fixation for 'K'. All her serials start with that alphabet and so does Karan's movies. It is believed that Ekta was keen to work with Karan. She wanted him to be part of her film. Karan too seemed to be equally fond of Ekta and agreed to play a game show host in Balaji Films' next C Kkompany. Karan plays host of a funny version of the popular show KBC.
It can also be recalled that once in his interview he said that both of them were very maladjusted, overweight kids. Today they turned out rather well. When asked about marriage Karan had said that "I don't think I ever will find the right partner. If finally neither Ekta nor I find someone else we'll marry each other."
It seems that Karan really meant what he said on the show. The duo recently performed live at Balaji Telefilms award function. It is believed that Ekta had earlier refused to perform with Karan Johar but changed her mind and finally the couple danced together and enjoyed being on stage.
A source says, "The couple are very much in love. In fact Ekta used to drop in to meet Karan during NDTV Imagine's shoots of Shava Shava. She visits his office more often. Their parents are happy with this relationship and also looking forward to this marriage."
Hope to see one more wedding soon.
