KYUNKI EKTA KUNWARI HAI
Ekta Kapoor must surely be the most eligible spinster in India (they must find a new word for female bachelors… spinster sounds like an elderly lady, which Ekta certainly isn't, and she'll hate me for using that abhorable word against her name). She has the personality, the attitude and the riches to make the cut. And if hopeful grooms are looking for the right eligibility criteria, they should have watched her sipping koffee with Karan on Sunday. The gent who the queen of soaps finds to be her model dream-man is Mukesh Ambani. Now, assuming Ekta wasn't joking (she's not really known for loose talk), and this wasn't her way to set the stage for a possible financial tieup (it's not the way Ekta goes about her business deals), we need to read between the lines. What Ekta seems to be saying is this: One, her man should come
from an ultra wealthy family. Which means 99 per cent of you interested boys can quickly go take a cold shower. Two, Ekta is attracted to older men, so even if the 1 per cent boys left are interested, they can go hit the Jacuzzi. Three, looks are not important to the miss (Mukeshbhai may have many zeroes attached to his net worth, but he isn't about to sizzle in the Glad Rags Mega Model Man Hunt competition), so that should be great news for most Indian men. Four, she prefers low profile guys (given her strong persona, you should anyway have expected that). But here's the surprise: Miss Kapoor wants a hubby who doesn't believe in the joint family system! So all you guys who swear by her soaps, and believe in hanste-khelte households packed with nanis, jethanis and debranis, can keep yourself locked inside the family shower room.
