Actor Sargun Mehta has praised producer Ekta Kapoor for paving the way for women filmmakers in the Indian television industry, enabling them to create content that resonates with their perspectives. Mehta, who has achieved success in both the TV and Punjabi movie industries, is now venturing into production with several projects, including the upcoming TV show “Badal Pe Paon Hai.”

“In TV, Ekta Kapoor cleared the way for everyone. She left no stone unturned to make sure that we didn’t have that hassle of being told, ‘How will you do it (produce a show)?’. She already did it so much that nobody could question (a woman producer),” Mehta said.

Ekta Kapoor, known for her transformative impact on Indian television, has been instrumental in breaking barriers and challenging stereotypes. Her success has inspired many women to take up roles as producers and create content that reflects diverse narratives.

Sargun Mehta’s acknowledgment of Kapoor’s influence highlights the importance of trailblazers in the industry who create opportunities for others to follow. With her new projects, Mehta aims to continue this legacy, bringing fresh and compelling stories to the screen.
