Television czarina Ekta Kapoor turned mommy earlier this week as she welcomed a baby boy via surrogacy on January 27.
The Kapoor family is all set to bring the little boy home soon, according to a report in Mumbai Mirror.
The Balaji Telefilms powerhouse seems to be following in the footsteps of her brother Tusshar Kapoor, who is a single dad to boy Laksshya Kapoor. Ekta is yet to release an official statement confirming the news of her motherhood.
Celebrities and fans are however congratulating the new mommy on social media. Ekta’s close friend Sanjay Gupta sent out wishes and wrote, “And this is the most heartening news this morning. Many congratulations Ekta. Welcome to the world and joy of parenting. God bless your baby with good health and lots of masti.”

Ekta shares a close bond with nephew Laksshya and she keeps posting pictures with him on her social media handles. About a year ago, Ekta had told Hindustan Times in an interview, “My life has changed. If there’s anything that’s most important in my life [now], then that’s Laksshya. Every day, he does something new and we all look forward to that. I miss him every time I’m travelling on work. You know, the lakshya (target) of my life now is to look after Laksshya.”
On the professional front, she recently released the recreated version of Kasautii Zindagii Kay starring Erica Fernandes, Parth Samthaan and Hina Khan. Apart from that, she is busy with several web series for Alt Balaji.
