Ekta Kapoor Is On Variety’s 500 List Of Influential Persons For Second Time, Finds It ‘Overwhelming’
While success sounds and is amazing, we all can forget how lonely it can be on the top. What I mean is that the more success one attains, they have lesser people to relate to and the success can sometimes be too much. Ekta Kapoor seems to be having the same feelings as she posted about being “overwhelmed” at being positioned in Variety’s 500 list which is a list of the 500 most influential business leaders shaping the global media industry.
There were 9 faces from India in Variety’s 500 list out of which Ekta Kapoor bagged a position. Variety’s website described Ekta Kapoor as, “Responsible for the creative direction of its TV shows and movies, Kapoor has helped Balaji Telefilms become one of the largest content producers in South Asia.” They also spoke about Balaji Telefilms’ achievements during and after the pandemic saying, “The pandemic caused a major hiatus for the company: Movies such as Pagglait and Dolly Kitty debuted on Netflix rather than opening in cinemas. But Balaji Telefilms is now back on track with five movies in the pipeline for 2022.”
