Ekta Kapoor
The TV industry cannot boast of a bigger success story than hers.
Initially, she faced a string of failures and huge losses as a producer, but she didn't give up and came back with the original Hum Paanch.
While growing up, she also had a weight problem but she combated that too with determination in an industry obsessed with slim figures.
Today, she's the one who has notched up the figures for Star India.
Sudha Shivpuri-----baa
The 60 plus Sudha Shivpuri has become a synonym for everyone's favourite grandmother.
She started her career when most actresses her age retire, but circumstances made Sudha don greasepaint.
Her portrayal of Ba in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi was such a hit that neither audiences nor Ekta Kapoor want her to die,
even as her reel daughters in law are beginning to get bumped off the serial.
Achint Kaur-----mandira
Not everybody knows that Achint Kaur, who walked out of her marriage and chose to
live in with Mohan Kapoor is a very good mother in real life. She may be the most villainous
vamp on screen courtesy her roles of Mandira in Kyunki… and Pallavi in Kahaani…. but she is
a doting mother to her son and takes care of everything, from homework to shopping.
She's also the franchisee of a salon Beyond The Fringe, that she takes care of.
She started with Banegi Apni Baat and Saaya and has been very careful in choosing her
work and has always been honest about her relationship with Mohan and is outspoken enough to call spade a spade.
