As a 20-year-old Ekta aspired to be a journalist and even had plans to enrol herself for a mass communication course with a foreign university. However, fate had different plans for her and she took over the tube.

Ekta Kapoor
Her favourite beat? Entertainment of course!

As a rookie reporter she had interviewed Jackie Shroff. "If things had worked out I would have been working in the newsroom today. Back then, I was extremely enthusiastic about the film circuit and wanted to become a film journalist," she says.

Getting to interview the who's who of the industry is the best part of a journalist's career. She says, "My first and last interview was with Jackie Shroff on a film set. It was good fun!" In fact, her urge to indulge in gossip led her to produce Kandy Floss — a purely gossip-based show with different segments including fun interviews, fashion police and events…

Mom Shobha Kapoor too believes that Ekta would have made a good journalist. "She was very keen on becoming a journalist and break stories. Post that one interview with Jackie she got so busy with the shows that she never went back to her former career choice."


"If things had worked out I would have been working in the newsroom today. Back then, I was extremely enthusiastic about the film circuit and wanted to become a film journalist"
