Ekta took to Instagram to share the picture and wrote, “Me with my cousins!!!! Not that I’m fan of body shaming !!! But full marks for that smirky confidence.” Her industry colleagues showered love on the post.
“Omg such an adorable picture and those ponytails,” actor Shriya Pilgaonkar commented. Actor Gautami Kapoor wrote, “Sooooo cute.” Producer Warda Khan Nadiadwala commented, “Cutest smile you got ek.”

In April, Ekta said that keeping in mind the losses suffered by the television industry due to the coronavirus pandemic, she will forgo a year’s salary of Rs 2.5 crore, so that her employees at Balaji Telefilms are not forced to take a pay cut.
“The impact of CORONA crisis is huge, unprecedented and multi-pronged. We all need to do things that will ease the hardships of people around us and of our country at large. It is my first & foremost responsibility to take care of the various freelancers & daily wage workers who work at Balaji Telefilms & who are going to suffer immense losses due to no shootings in the current scenario and uncertainty over the indefinite period to follow,” she said in a statement.
“I would thus forsake my one year’s salary that is Rs. 2.5 crores at Balaji Telefilms so that my co-workers don’t have to take a hit during this period of crisis and complete lockdown. The only way ahead, is together. Stay Safe, Stay Healthy,” she added.
