2 Balaji shows on Sony slated 4 19th Nov

Ekta to build a dream studio

Ekta Kapoor dreams big and this time she wants to build a mega studio a la Hollywood style to erase all space issues she faces when she has to shoot a road, garden or hospital scene. Currently her serials are being shot in various studio complexes owned by Balaji Films but she wants to build a Film City kind of setup that fulfills all the requirements under one roof. "She was inspired by Nitin Desai's studio in Karjat, so now Ekta will build a studio in Thane, the outskirts of Mumbai. She wants to control her shows' lighting and give it that extra edge. She has already purchased the land and work will start there soon," reveals a source from Balaji. Meanwhile Balaji has two new shows coming up on Sony on November 19.
