MUMBAI : Ekta Kapoor is known for entertaining the audience with innumerable shows. The producer is known for shows such as Kasautii Zindagii Kay, Naagin series, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, and many others. However, she is currently making headlines for her web series Virgin Bhasskar 2. She had to bear the brunt of the descendant of leader Ahilyabai Holkar for the recent web series. There’s a scene in this web series where it is shown that a sex racket takes place in a hostel named after Ahilyabai Holkar, one of the leaders of the Maratha Empire. Now this has hurt the sentiments of Holkar's descendants and hence a group of 40-50 people have pelted stones at Ekta's residence in Mumbai, resulting in the damage of her property. Bombay Times also shared a picture of the aftermath of this unpleasant incident at the producer’s residence.
