Ekta Kapoor became a mother to a baby boy via surrogacy. This news came three years after little brother Tusshar Kapoor had opted for surrogacy and become a father to a baby boy, who he named Laksshya Kapoor. The producer's baby was born on January 27, and she named him Ravie, after dad Ravi Kapoor.

While she's enjoying motherhood now, becoming a mother was something Ekta Kapoor gave a lot of thought to, for a very long time. In an interview with Deccan Chronicle, Ekta said, "I am a mother today, but let me tell you that I had begun contemplating it seven years ago. It literally took me that long to really take that responsibility."
