Ekta Kapoor
A 28 year old aspiring actor set himself on fire in front of Ekta Kapoor’s office. It is said that this man, Akshay Shivam Shukla, has been living in Asaram Bapu’s ashram in Ahmedabad for six years. He like other millions of Indians dreamed of making it big in Bollywood. Apart from his acting skills, he also wanted to show Kapoor the scripts and songs he had written, hoping she might rope him in for a break.The security guards were too harsh on Akshay, he repeatedly dropped at Kapoor’s office but he was not allowed to meet Ekta. One day, even though he managed to sneak past the security, he was shoved out again to his bad luck. In a fit of rage and frustration, Akshay turned a bottle of kerosene over and set himself ablaze.By the time the security guards took notice and threw him into the nearby gutter to extinguish the flame, he had suffered 45 percent burns. He is now recuperating at Cooper Hospital, Vile Parle.Wonder if Ekta will notice him now.
