Bollywood’s lavish birthday parties often raise curiosity about what kind of lavish gifts the stars might receive. However, producer Ekta Kapoor recently offered a reality check, revealing that such assumptions are far from the truth.
One often sees actors like Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan throwing lavish birthday parties for their close friends from the industry. But one wonders what people will give these big stars as gifts? Ekta shared during a chat with MK Talks, “People don’t usually take gifts for birthdays, especially for big names like Salman or Shah Rukh Khan. What would you even take for their birthdays?” Referring to stars like Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan.

She went on to explain that she doesn’t even indulge too much in birthday celebrations.
“Actually, I don’t attend many birthdays. On my birthday, I go to Tirupati and don’t invite anyone. If you usually ask what a person gives on an elder’s birthday, I have mostly seen that people only give blessings,” she said.Breaking the stereotype of extravagant Bollywood parties, Ekta added: “This impression of the film industry, that expensive gifts are exchanged, people drink a lot, and party all the time, is not true.”
In fact, the industry has been described as surprisingly weak. “In fact, you won’t find a more boring industry than this. The film industry is the most boring industry,” she added, noting that many stars maintain a disciplined routine, go to bed early, wake up on time, and prioritize their health over late-night indulgence.On the work front, Ektaa’s upcoming film Bhooth Bangla is all set to release on April 17. The horror-comedy features Akshay Kumar in the lead, alongside Paresh Rawal,
