Ekta Kapoor made her blue-eyed girl Prachi Desai of Kasamh Se fame work harder than other actors before relieving her from Balaji Telefilms because the TV tycoon didn't want to be accused of favouritism.
Would Prachi make it when others from Balaji like Amarr Upadhyay, Chetan Hansraj and Shabbir Ahluwalia are still struggling for a foothold in films?
Ekta thinks Prachi stands a good chance.
"Prachi doesn't have a burning ambition to make it into movies. She doesn't go to meet film producers. On the contrary, they're calling her. Nowadays there's an acute shortage of heroines in the industry. I hope Prachi does well so that the myth about television actors not making it in films would break."
