Ekta Kapoor cheated me: Rishi Kapoor

Thank god for the sunny role in "Hum Tum". The last time we saw Rishi Kapoor, he was a ghoulish murder suspect in Ekta Kapoor's "Kucch To Hai" and watching him as the empathetic, humorous father of Saif Ali Khan after that was so welcome. Fumes Rishi: "I couldn't help doing that film since my good friend Jeetendra was involved. Ekta is like a daughter to me. She told me it was a small cameo of a murder suspect. My role kept getting changed throughout! This is what Ekta does all the time. "No wonder all the actors, including Sohail Khan, are so unhappy with her. The director has to wait to decide what Ekta does next. I was so unhappy. It was a rubbishy role. Ekta should stop making feature films. They make films like serials. She should do only television." ...."Well, I was always there. I still get the same kind of offers that I got before 'Hum Tum'. It's just that I won't accept any and every film that comes my way. I need a good wicket to bat on. I'd never venture blindfolded into a film like I did with Balaji's 'Kuchh To Hai'. I'm really upset with them. "They cheated me. I've to guard my interests as an actor. It's very important for me to have the newer generation of moviegoers recognise me as a good actor. My endeavour is to find the right roles. At my age there aren't too many promising parts available."

The article is pretty long as he talks about other things as well. But, I copy & pasted the main things of the article related to our discussion about Ekta. Here is the link:

From what others have told me in IF about Ekta Kapoor and her shows and from reading this article, it seems like this woman has a pretty bad reputation when it comes to handling her shows and characters. I am not bashing her becuz, I am not too familiar with her shows as I have only seen 1-2 shows of hers which were also, destroyed by her. But, it has me worried about Abhiya and PKYEK based on her past reputation of not utilizing her characters to their potential and changing the track all the time from its original concept. 😕

the article! OMG! now you got me really worried!..so its a habit of her to change the script all the times , doesn't she know that this will weaken the plot? and and diverts the story from its main concept?! and the outcome would be a total chaos!, i am sure that movie was a major flop!

@red....oh well if she ruins Abhay & Piya! and doesn't utilize Visu's brilliant acting skills and their magical chemistry, it will be totally her lose too cause this show will go down the drain!

the main concept is dark story and the main leads are Abhay and Piya whether anyone like it or not! so she better stick with it!

you know what i think, i think she did all this once with one of her series and somehow and for whatever odd reasons it worked for her and the show became a major hit

so she thinks now she can do it again and again and it will work too, hello! not all the viewers are the same! and if a blunder works once with some viewers it wont work again with some others !

she knows that this show is targeted to youngsters and its not one of her saas bahu type! so she better stick with her original concept! and the main leads Abhay & Piya

I just hope this woman gets on track somehow and doesn't destroy our Abhiya. I hate how Indian serials make the characters so appealing that we grow to be awe of them and then they just smash at our face! 😡

Really like chakku I am also worried. What if she breaks abhiya relationship and pair piya with abhay's bro. 😲 I cant bear that. I am deeply in love with abhiya and if she does that it will break my heart.😭

P.S - current TB article of KMH2 says that Arohi will get married to other one not Arjun. What if she does the same trick with this show.😡

Lol, all Ekta's movies have been flops.......as I used to hear about it all the time on tv about people ridiculing her movies as flops.

I have heard that her shows are famous for her characters but, ridiculed for their story tracks. Like for instance, in the DMG forum, there was a post about the couples that were destroyed by indian television serials and many people in there were vouching for the characters but, abusing the serials and out of those serials most were of Ekta's.

I just hope this woman gets on track somehow and doesn't destroy our Abhiya. 😕 I hate how Indian serials make the characters so appealing that we grow to be awe of them and then they just smash at our face! 😡
