Why Ektaa Kapoor's Historic Emmy Win Is More Special For Women in Indian Cinema

Ektaa Kapoor is known for delivering many super hits on the TV, OTT, and box office. She is known as a creative force who knows what to do with the product and how to present it to the audience. Looking at her work and success, she was awarded the prestigious Emmy Award recently.

Her contribution to the world of entertainment, spanning TV shows, films, and OTT content, has left a mark that is very difficult to match for any other woman in the industry. That's why her Emmy win is more special because we don't see many off-camera women getting such honour on the global stage, except for technical or departmental things.What she has garnered is more than a mere accolade; it's a testament to the impact of her work. Ektaa R. Kapoor has not just created content; she has created memories for audiences with TV shows, made taboo subjects commercially appealing, and sold bold content with conviction on OTT.

Among many, Vir Das is also a name that took home the Emmy Award this year. But Ektaa's win stands out since she is a woman and our industry has always been dominated by men. Yes, some actresses have found their worth with their work, but hardly did anyone manage to do it for almost 3 decades without facing a camera. The Emmy is not just a trophy; it symbolises the global recognition of her creativity, vision, and ability to connect with viewers.
