No leave for Ram

Thanks to producer Ekta Kapoor, the actor has to report to the sets even on New Year's Eve

Back to Section Stories

Reena Thapar Kapoor

Ram Kapoor is one actor who is still clueless about his New Year's Eve plans. The buzz is that Ekta Kapoor has rejected his application of leave. Like most people Ram wanted to go out of town to usher in the New Year, but producer Ekta and her creative team of Kasamh Se took a joint decision that he won't be given leave again. Reason? Last month Ram had taken leave to spend some time with his family in Goa. The actor was away for a whole week which took a toll on his co-stars, who had to work overtime to fill in the gaps for him. "He can't take off now!" said a source.

"We're working on a weekly show and if everybody takes off together, how are we going to work?" reasons a source.

Obviously, Ram isn't too happy with this news. He had already made plans for the New Year with his family. "I was supposed to go to Bangkok with my wife Gautmi and a few close friends. But I was told that I was required to be in Mumbai, and report to the sets regularly," says Ram. The others actors of Kasamh Se have been granted leave for the New Year. Prachi Desai will be in Bali with Ekta and friends, Naman Shaw will be celebrating in Bangkok while Roshni Chopra will be off for her honeymoon.

So, it's just Ram who will be holding fort along with a few character actors. "I don't know what's happening. I'm trying my best to convince the creative team of Kasamh Se to set me free for three days. I don't wish to celebrate New Year in Mumbai," adds Ram. With his co-stars looking forward to the excitement, Ram is certainly feeling left out

It is this concentration camp mentally of Ekta Kapoor which I feel is making actors run away at the first available opportunity. Granted she spots good talent. But she should also try to retain them. It would be very difficult to do so with this mindset, denying even a couple of days off to her lead players. Iqbal has already quit KAA and time will only tell how costly this loss is going to be to the serial. So if she does not watch out others may also leave. Where does that leave our great lady?

Wow, I really love the fact that I get to see KS daily, but seriously if I were doing what the actors were doing, I'd be burned out so soon. I don't think it be a big deal if they just showed re-runs for one whole week and gave everyone a break at the same time. They do that in the US with the daily talk shows. Its better than having unhappy actors.

It is true that it's very harsh for Ram Kapoor. But we all have to realize that Ekta Kapoor is a professional business person and she has to balance and also do justice to all other co-actors as well. We all know that Ram Kapoor just came back from 1 week vacation and as I feel other actors also do desrve to be treated in the same manner. I think Ekta's decision is quite justified.

POOR RAM KAPOOR, JUST TOOK A EARLY VACATION.
